Sep 18, 2024 - BVWSC - Old Strathcona

  • Brush: Craving Shaving Blue Bronze 26mm Crave Synthentic Knot
  • Razor: Mühle Rocca R94
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [5]
  • Lather: MacDuffs Soap Company - Old Strathcona - Soap
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts - Druantia - Aftershave (Alcohol Free)
  • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Fougère Gothique - Eau de Parfum

Today's BVWSC shave was with the selection of Old Strathcona. It's a unique take on a barbershop/fougère scent with rosewood substituting for lavender and the addition of aromatic tree moss and earthy mushroom absolute.

The feedback of the Rocca was satisfying, and almost as good as a GEM razor. Druantia and Fougère Gothique complemented the shave with their mushroom accords.

Thank you for suggesting this and sending it out. I really enjoyed it! Definitely up my alley. I loved the woodsy, outdoor take on a barbershop. Scent strength was perfect.
