I broke with the Scent-Off today to celebrate Thanksgiving, and HTGAM’s Pumpkin Pi seemed like the idea shaving soap. I used one of the big, fluffy Omega Silvertips—truly wonderful brushes—and was struck by the wonderfully present and distinctive fragrance of pumpkin pie as I loaded the brush. And the lather this soap is exceptional: it felt as though I were brushing whipped cream from out of the surface of a small pumpkin pie (certainly the 5″-diameter puck made it seem as though I were holding a small pie).
Today I loaded a Schick Krona—relatively mild—with a new Feather blade: very easy shave, very smooth, no nicks or irritation. A good splash of Speick and the festive day commences.
