What soap/cream did you use today?

Really love Safi. Wish was within budget. It a masterpiece

The Club - The Novelist (Kaizen)

Do we know why there are two brand names (and two websites)... Particularly when one is called The Club and you don't need to be in the club to purchase those items? (And there actually is a club.)

Does this annoy anyone else? Or am I too Type A?

Very confusing. Yes - has kept me from trying and buying. WTH strategy is he employing?

Ironically, whatever spell they're casting, it's got me. (Or is it the base? )

I have 20+ soaps in Kaizen and K2. Maybe 25+ if we include the Sphinx brand.

Leviathan (Barrister & Mann) leather, sandalwood, coffee, cedar & musk
Omnibus ・ Shave 1 ・ 98% left

Just cracked open a new tub of Leviathan. The smell of sandalwood in this full jar is more pronounced than in the sample I just used up. It’s blending well with the bold smells of coffee and leather, giving them a soft, spicy background. The musk is sort of flowery with a little citric twist. It stays in the back, too. If it weren’t there, this would be a glum shave. Today’s face lathering went well, but I believe Omnibus does me a better lather in a bowl, where I can dump in a lot of water all at once.

Now the race is on to see which I will finish first, Moby Dick or this tub of soap. Smart money’s on the book.

DFS/Ethos Colonia. Maybe not the time of year for a clean, fresh and citrus vibe especially in he Northeast US but, the performance is amazing as is the scent. Besides, you can never go wrong in smelling clean & fresh anytime of year.

Please do internalize one of the primary admonitions that obsession rarely ends well
