That circumflex on cliché bothers me more than it should 😅

How's the scent and soap base? I've never tried Westman Shaving

That circumflex on cliché

An outrage, a scandal, a disaster!

I shall immediately inform the Académie française, and expect the immediate deployment of their rapid intervention force!

As an American who thinks that National Lampoon's European Vacation is a documentary, it bothered me too. As I suspect you already know, it is a word in Portuguese. It means cliché, as you might expect.

I feel I owe it to my adopted country to be performatively outraged 🤣

As you should!

Westman has a really good base. I like the scent. It has some depth to it for a barbershop scent.
