Apr 25, 2024 - Theme Thursday: April Showers

  • Brush: Declaration Grooming Know It All 28mm B14 Badger Knot
  • Razor: Mühle Rocca R94
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [2]
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Petrichor - Soap (Excelsior)
  • Post Shave: Chiseled Face - Summer Storm - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Southern Witchcrafts - Tres Matres - Eau de Parfum

I have a fascination with the way dirt, rain, and ozone can create this otherworldly scent. The etymology of the "Ichor" portion of the word petrichor derives from Greek Mythology, meaning the blood or essence of the gods.

Rating: 4.5/5
