  • Brush: Wolf Whiskers - "Gianmaria" w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Chiseled Face Legacy Raw Titanium - (#69)
  • Blade: Personna P74 (97)
  • Lather: Abbate y La Mantia - Garibaldi - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barbasol - Brisk - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Dove - Men+Care Ultra-Hydra - Cream
  • Fragrance: Berceuse Parfum - Minneapolis 5.3 - EdP

I loaded super heavy and the lather was unlike anything else I have in my den. Even though Coconut Oil is the #1 ingredient, this is the least puffy lather I have. It just doesn't get big. Adding water just waters it down -- it's either a thick hair conditioner or a thin hair conditioner depending on how much water you add. It's both wonderful and horrible at the same time.

Minneapolis 5.3 is definitely in my wheelhouse. It's a thicc scent and I like it.
