The Thu 19 Sep 2024

  • Brush: Semogue Owner's Club (cherry wood and boar) (50)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 17 (NOS, 7/8", hollow ground, stainless steel)
  • Lather: Abbate Y La Mantia – Koké
  • Post Shave: Abbate Y La Mantia – Koké
  • Fragrance: House of Mammoth / Noble Otter / Declaration Grooming – Cerberus

Today is Theme Thursday over on the other place, and we giving a nod to NZ Suffragette Day (Shave with a a product considered to have a more feminine scent, e.g. florals. BONUS if you shave with a product made in New Zealand.)

I don't have anything made in New Zealand. Koké could totally be a feminine scent though, and it has a Polynesian theme going, and I believe New Zealand is a part of Polynesia.

Delightful shave with great šmells.

I almost went with Koké today. How did Cerberus pair with it?

[–] djundjila 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They have a very similar mood without being all that similar in scent notes. It works really well together IMO

I'll have to give it a go.
