Vreedom

  • Brush: Semogue Owner's Club (cherry wood and boar) (32)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 17 (NOS, 7/8", hollow ground, stainless steel)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co – Varen
  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth / Noble Otter / Declaration Grooming – Cerberus Fougère
  • Fragrance: Chatillon Lux – Weinstrasse

I've been looking forward to using some Varen again for the last few days, and it was as nice as I remember. I went a bit overboard with Cerb Foug and Weinis, but I was in the mood for a loud and lively fougère combo, and that's exactly what I got.

The Frio 17 is a joy to use.

Very nice setup! Getting beyond AA is nice, but now there's the heavy weight of all those choices :)

The first days feel great though! All those soaps you missed...🙂
