Saturday, December 07, 2024: Smoky Sample Saturday

  • Brush: Omega - 10048 boar
  • Razor: RazoRock - Game Changer .76
  • Blade: Gillette - 7 O'Clock SharpEdge (1)
  • Lather: Stirling - Texas on Fire
  • Post: Chiseled Face - Ghost Town Barber Aftershave splash
  • Post: Ginger's Garden - Unscented Aftershave balm (+ menthol)
  • Frag: Chiseled Face - Ghost Town Barber EdP

A comfortable close shave with the GC. I'm pretty sure this razor has replaced my Rockwell 6C.

Lovely lather from Stirling as always, and I really enjoyed the smokiness of this fragrance. It's not overpowering, and certainly not 'like an ashtray' as I've seen in other reviews. Thanks for the generous smush @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Have a great Saturday y'all. It's looking like it'll be a beautiful one here.

You're welcome! Nice to hear that you enjoy the sample. It's definitely not an ashtray to me either, but I can see why it's a quite divisive scent - not many people can handle that much smoke.
