    You Talcin’ To Me?

    • Brush: Zenith 506U N (50/50 horse mane/tail)
    • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 72-V (13/16", quarter hollow or near wedge, stainless steel)
    • Lather: Noble Otter Rawr
    • Aftershave: Declaration Grooming Bangarang
    • Fragrance: Sir Irisch Moos
    • Talc: Pinaud Clubman Finest Powder

    Bangarang and Rawr have a similar inspiration: a feeling of nostalgia for a carefree childhood. This manifests quite differently in the two scents though, with clean, fresh, vernal rawr and sweet, slightly dirty Bangarang. I used to think that the two fragrances don’t pair well together, but when I sniffed them together a few days ago, setting up some SOTD combos, I realised that I’ve changed my mind. The Moos recalls a similar green and a bit floral theme from Rawr. This is a good combo that I’ve had lying around my den for a long time, but never tried.

    In related news, the #Talcening continues, this time without need for the bomb squad. Only small powder puffs escaped and I didn’t end up looking like Marie Antoinette. #progress
