  • Brush: Zenith โ€“ r/Wetshaving exclusive MOAR BOAR (31 mm ร— 57 mm bleached boar)
  • Razor: Koraat โ€“ r/Wetshaving exclusive Moarteen (15/16", full hollow, carbon steel)
  • Lather: Mike's Natural Soaps โ€“ Vetiver
  • Post Shave: Pitralon โ€“ Classic ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช
  • Fragrance: Atelier Rebul โ€“ Istanbul

First go with Mike's Vetiver for me, and this thing is grassy. I've known vetiver that is earthy, stanky, even fresh, and I've often seen it described as a grassy note, but this is the first time I experience it myself. Noice! Thanks u/EldrormR for the puck!

I'm enjoying going through various software combinations while keeping the sub-exclusive hardware fixed, and I think I'll continue this way through May until The Games force my hand. Have a great Friday, my friends!

Very eclectic setup!

Iโ€™m traveling and am using a Friodur razor because it is great, and worry-free. Iโ€™m looking forward to more Moar when my trip ends.
