Admittedly, i primarily bought this because of the label. I'm not a Star Wars nerd by any means but I did grow up during the Star Wars era and loved (most) of the movies. And, yes, I had a lot of the action figures. As an adult, i sure wish i had never opened them $$$$ But as a kid, man I loved playing with those toys.

Saw that and had similar thoughts but restrained myself, how's the scent ?

Face Shave
Razor: Blackbird Ti
Blade: Gillette Nacet (1)
Brush: Mozingo Night Sky ZT3
Soap: HAGS VooDoo

What a great combo for today's face shave! Love this new ZT3 and the pour is fantastic. The Bazaar splash is incredible and I'm really pleased with the scent and post-shave feel of using it.

Today marks the nine-year milestone of my wet shaving journey. I can’t help but reflect on the fragrant trail that has led me here. Starting out I couldn’t tell cedar from vetiver or amber from bergamot, but with each lather, my senses sharpened, and my olfactory palette expanded. Though I’m still no nose, I’ve got pretty good at sniffing out scents. But, after almost a decade of exploration, my interest in fragrance has grown beyond mere curiosity. It’s become an obsession. Since the start of my shave odyssey, I find I have ordered nearly 500 tubs of shaving soap from 87 different companies. All told, that’s a staggering 43 kilos of soap (half of which has either been used, discarded, or given away).
While the acquisition of these fragrant gems has been a source of great entertainment, I’ve been feeling a strong urge lately to shift my focus from collecting to consuming. So, with 21,130 grams of soap still remaining in my hoard, I’m embarking on a new journey. My haven will be a number, and that number will be 20,000 grams. That’s right, by year’s end I hope to have a mere 20 kilos of soap on hand. Hold tight, we’ve got some heavy loading ahead of us.
