🦣 Mammoth Monday: Avocado 🥑

  • Brush: Declaration Grooming Magic Hour 28mm B8 Badger Knot
  • Razor: Blackland Razors Blackbird Ti
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum [6]
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Avocado - Soap
  • Post Shave: Westman Shaving - Nirvana - Splash
  • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Just Right for a Tuesday - Eau de Parfum

I tried out the sample of Avocado I received from HoM. It's an earthy and fresh scent, and it paired nicely with the fig notes in Nirvana and Just Right for a Tuesday.

I can't imagine Avocado as appealing for a shave soap. But Nirvana ... Tiago created a wonderful, elegant scent imo.

My wife, who knew nothing about the soap, struggled to get anything approaching avocado. I think it's more the suggestion of avocado.

I agree that Nirvana is amazing.

WestMan feels a bit undiscovered and Tiago’s work is excellent. Perhaps Nirvana can be a suggestion for the October BVWSC.

Yeah, I think that's a great idea.
