Share your shave of the day!

If you’re following along with the Lather Games at the other website, today’s theme is:

Fougère Friday

"Product scent must demonstrably be a fougère (one of the most prevalent fragrance families in men's fashion).  It should be marketed as a fougère or classified as one on a reputable site.
Note: The mere presence of lavender, coumarin, and oakmoss in a product does not make it a fougère (nor does their absence necessarily rule the category out)!  Ask an expert ahead of time if in doubt.
Caveat: WK Fern Concerto is not eligible for this theme because of reasons.  Just ignore that one."

    • Brush: Wolf Whiskers “Coffee & Cream” with DG B1
    • Razor: GEM Damaskeene
    • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE (2)
    • Lather: Chiseled Face - Topanga Fougere - Soap
    • Post Shave: Barbasol - Brisk - Aftershave

    If you’ve ever smelled Martin de Candre “Fougere”, this is very similar. I prefer Topanga Fougere, as it’s slightly less bright and comes in a better soap base.

    The Damaskeene is pretty much the perfect GEM razor for me. It’s mild compared to most other GEM options, but the results are pretty damn good! Not as close of a shave as, say, a Micromatic Open Comb, but more more fun.

    Would we be having this much fun
    And had a 10 year run
    Without a team of nerds
    Reading all of these words
    Especially that guy Onion
