May 21st, 2025: BVWSC - APR Raconteur

  • Brush: Chisel & Hound "Spice Lily" - TurnNShave Tuxedo 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Gillette - Rocket HD
  • Blade: Parker Premium Platinum (1)
  • Lather: Australian Private Reserve - Raconteur - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Ubrique - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Ginger's Garden - Unscented (+menthol) - Balm
  • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz - SIR Irisch Moos - EdT

For this month's meeting of the BVWSC we shaved with APR Raconteur. This is my first use of this soap, and I really enjoyed it. It's definitely in the neighborhood of Midnight Stag, but is a more subtle and warm leather. Nowhere near as sharp to my nose.

As much as I enjoy it, I'm sure this scent would earn a veto from Mrs. snoot. Thanks, walden, for sending smushes for us all this month!
