Cycle of Renewal and Rest

Winter has been symbolic of rest, reflection, and the quietude needed for regeneration. It's a time to embrace stillness and allow for the decay of the old, paving the way for new growth.

Spring represents renewal, vitality, and hope. It embodies the promise that life, even after the darkest moments, can emerge new and flourish.

Embrace the periods of inactivity and hardship as necessary precursors to rejuvenation and progress.

Nov 20, 2024 - BVWSC: Oro Valley

  • Brush: Brochas El Druida/House of Mammoth Tobacconist Chisel & Hound v8 Fanchurian Badger Knot
  • Razor: Mühle Rocca R94
  • Blade: Perma-Sharp Super [4]
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Oro Valley - Soap
  • Post Shave: Ariana & Evans - Lavender Noir - Splash
  • Fragrance: Tom Ford - Ombré Leather - Eau de Parfum

I love the interplay between the jasmine sambac and the leather notes in both Oro Valley and Tom Ford's Ombré Leather. Stirling's homage, which is the Buena Vista Wetshaving Social Club selection for today, is spot on to the original.

Great picks all around!

Copy that! Thanks for the reminder
