What soap/cream did you use today?

Man that is a favorite DG of mine. Great petitgrain and OB in that'n

There's been a little chatter on here about Tallow + Steel lately, prompting the use of this set. Solid base, nice scent. 

Good call! I used this one last night after your prompting
I get excellent results with their base. And their scents seem to keep getting better (I was not a fan of the most of the scents a few years ago).

I wish they'd re-release this scent. After some of the soap stash gets reduced a little, I should try some of their other scents. For all I know, I might've gotten this set from you awhile back. I can't remember. They seem to fly under the radar compared to many other artisans, probably in part because they don't partner with any retailers.

Trismegistus (Declaration Grooming) Terre d’Hermès
Shave 1

Great call, TommyCarioca! Although we chose different brands, we both settled on the same scent: bright citrus, dry stone, and plenty of cedar. Terre d’Hermès is perfect for easygoing June afternoons. Smells like summer’s in the offing. The only thing that may smell better on a day like today is HoosierShave's 88 Chestnut St. 

Declaration Grooming's milksteak base continues to impress. It’s as soft and fragrant as a cream, but it’s far more protective. Building a brush-load of remarkably dense lather is a pleasure, and scraping it off the face is painless.

Tallow+Steel - West Coast Double IPA

Well blended, but the focus is orange in a hops funk-cloud.

Agree 100 percent on the Milksteak Base.  It never disappoints and it’s cushion and post shave are as good as any available!!
