December 11, 2023: Les lundis du Père Lucien

  • Preshave: Proraso Green Preshave
  • Brush: Yaqi 28mm Synthetic ""Rock""
  • Razor: Feather Artist Club SS Kamisori
  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE (13)
  • Lather: Le Père Lucien Narcisse
  • Post Shave: Floid The Genuine
  • Post Shave: Nivea After Shave Balm

The blade entered into a bit of a rough patch - I hope it will smooth out soon. Narcisse is a great scent.

Have a good night!


EDIT: To all the stag enjoyers out there - you might want to try Fumoir des Anges by Annette Neuffer

HEAD: Rum Absolute, Green Cognac, Angelica, Szechuan Peppercorn, Bergamot, Blood Orange*, Clementine

HEART: Tobacco Absolute, Iris Germanica, Caramel, Honey, Bulgarian Rose Otto, Boronia, Red Frangipani, Lisylang, Olibanum

BASE Bourbon Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Cocoa, Patchouli, Siam Benzoin, Sandalwood, Vietnamese Crassna Oud, Labdanum, Myrrh, Beeswax, genuine white Ambergris

I personally find it too cloying, and my first reaction was you can't be serious, but initial contact with the Stag was similar. Maybe maybe maybe!
