  • Brush: Thäter Faux Ivory 29mm 2-band Silvertip

  • Razor: Koraat 14-2.0 8/8" Full Hollow

  • Lather: Declaration Grooming - Cerberus - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner

  • Aftershave: Noble Otter - Cerberus - Aftershave

  • Fragrance: Declaration Grooming - Cerberus - Eau de Parfum

  • Talc: Yardley Classic
     
    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I don't remember the story behind this collaboration, but Cerberus is a triumph for House of Mammoth, Declaration Grooming and Noble Otter. If you have looked at this, liked the scent notes, and were intrigued, it's even better than you imagine. The Koraat 14-2.0, and everything else in this setup, was an absolute pleasure to use today.

Cerberus is a triumph

💯

It's also somewhat Black Watch-adjacent. This warm stone fruit idea must have been in the air last year.

You're right! I did not make that connection. I'm drawn to the stone fruit aspect of both scents.
