The Lather Games theme (from the other website) is:

Information Overload

"Product marketing must list at least 10 scent notes.
Note: remember that notes are scent descriptors used for marketing - not actual ingredient lists.
Caveat: fragrance dupes will count the number of notes listed in the dupe's marketing description - not the original product's description."

    • Brush: Semogue 610
    • Razor: Wolfman Guerilla (Gen 1)
    • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (German) (15)
    • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Lyssa - Soap
    • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Lyssa - Aftershave
    • Fragrance: Jōvan Musk - EdT

    This brush misses the #SMOLL scavenger hunt by 1mm. Oh well. It’s a small brush, but never has any trouble providing enough lather for 3+ passes.

    Lyssa is an interesting floral scent. It’s floral without being flowery. I found this teaser video while researching scent notes (caution, it’s a facebook link).

    According to this website, the scent notes are: rose, geranium, ashes, nutmeg, saffron, sage, oud, labdanum, oakmoss, patchouli, tobacco, smooth musk and Violets. The Wetshaving Database lists them slightly differently, as Saffron, Tobacco, Oud, Violet, Sage, Patchouli, Nutmeg, Ash, Oakmoss, Labdanum, Rose, Geranium.

    Eiher way, that’s more than 10.

    Relevant post shave and fragrance - Each item used today is used to either repel or attract. Lyssa is a zombie repellent, and musk is used by a lot of animals to attract mates. For me, however it seems to repel my spouse.

      Quite the confidence on Will’s part to market a scent as a zombie repellant. I love that kind of risk-taking. As the years go on, repelling one’s spouse gets easier and easier :)
