Just as an arresting scene can catch one’s eye, an arresting fragrance can catch one’s nose. The fragrance of Jabonman’s Eufros Violetas struck me forcefully this morning — as if today were the first time I paid attention, or was open to what it had to offer, which is a lot. Wonderfully present floral fragrance and a superb lather, in part due to the Rooney Emilion and its excellent knot.
This stainless-steel RazoRock Mamba from Italian Barber is, unlike the snake, indisposed to bite. Indeed, it is deceptively gentle and comfortable — “deceptive” because it is also highly efficient. I have an old model, when there was but one version; now, there are two: the 53 and the 70. I imagine mine is equivalent to the 53.
After 3 passes, my face was totally smooth, and a splash of Stirling Executive Man with a squirt of Grooming Dept Hydrating Gel finished the job and started the weekend.
