Fragrances are very much YMMV. For example, I love the coffee+honey fragrance of Planet Java Hive, but I know that some don’t like it at all. And the fragrance of Organism 46-B appeals strongly to me. (Link is to CK-6 formula, but it’s also available in the regular formula for about $10 less.)
Scent Notes: burnt sugar – bitter orange – brandy – Hedione – tobacco absolute – benzoin resin – ambergris
My RazoRock Amici brush worked up a very nice lather indeed. I loaded the almost-dry brush well (twice adding a driblet of water to fully load the brush), then as I worked up the lather on my face, I added two more good dollops of water, which the lather absorbed readily growing in volume while maintaining a good consistency. I like that Amici a lot: very nice handle, and the 20mm knot feels very nice while holding a lot of lather.
Prep done, I pick up my Fatip Lo Storto and set to work. This is an extremely nice slant, and I don’t me just the aesthetics (which indeed are very nice); smooth, easy shave and a totally smooth result: the Monday morning reward for getting through the weekend.
A good splash of Organism 46-B aftershave, augmented with a squirt of Hydrating Gel, and the week begins — with a very dark and overcast day, though not at the moment raining. Time for tea.
