Feb 19, 2025 - BVWSC SLS - Dragonsbeard

  • Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Plus
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [24]
  • Lather: Ethos Grooming Essentials - Dragonsbeard - Soap

February's BVWSC sample generously came courtesy of @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social, who has selected some top tier soaps for us to try. This month's selection is no different. Dragonsbeard is a warm, woody exploration of oud, and I thoroughly enjoyed the shave.

Jan 15, 2025 - BVWSC January 2025 Edition

  • Brush: Trotter Handcrafts Monster Dark 26mm SHD Gelousy Badger Knot
  • Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Ti
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [13]
  • Lather: Los Jabones de Joserra - Noir
  • Post Shave: Declaration Grooming - Dirtyver - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Lalique - Encre Noire A L'Extreme - Eau de Parfum

Excellent scents all around! This was a very enjoyable BVWSC shave from a new-to-me artisan, generously provided by @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social.

Los Jabones de Joserra Noir is the clean-shaven, dapper, three-piece suit wearing, quietly aloof, socialite brother of the Carhartt-wearing, shaggy-haired, unruly-bearded, wilderness-loving, overly affectionate brother that is Dirtyver.

Suffice it to say that Dirtyver overpowered LJdJ's Noir, but Noir is an easy to use, well crafted scent that I'm now very tempted to introduce to my den.
