Oct 22, 2024 - Tea Tuesday - Jasmine Retreat

Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts 28mm Declaration Grooming B13 Badger Knot

Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Ti

Blade: Gillette Platinum [5]

Lather: Noble Otter - 茉莉綠茶 (Jasmine Green Tea) - Soap

Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - Retreat - Aftershave Lotion
- Great setup! Is JGT another great tea scent for shaving? Noble Otter already has TNeV; a tea scent that would be hard to top.
  
  The two scents are very different from each other, so not really a fair comparison. JGT is a great scent on its own. That said, if I had to choose only one to keep, it would be TNeV.

Brush: Zenith - B21 boar

Razor: Gilette - Super Speed black tip

Blade: Personna - Lab Blue (2)

Lather: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two

Post: Ginger's Garden - unscented aftershave balm + menthol

Post: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two AS splash

Frag: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two EdT

I love Roam Two. That is all.

I am very curious to try the OG Roam, but I haven't seen it pop up on the zaar yet. Anyone want to trade a smush of Two for a smush of the OG? :)

Have a great one y'all. ✌️
- I have OG Roam in Soft Hearts. PM me (ideally on matrix) if you're still interested in a trade!
  
  Message sent (I think!)
- I killed my tub of OG Roam so can't send a smush, but I can tell you they're very different. Both are great, and I'm not sure if I have a favorite between the two of them.
  
  Not surprised that the OG was also great. I’ve yet to meet a BaM scent that I didn’t like.

Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts Tabak Oridjinal, now with 28 mm Gelousy knot

Razor: Koraat Sparschweinchen (7/8", "Sheffield-style" full hollow, carbon steel)

Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original

Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original

Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original

I love this Sparschweinchen, but today it made me really impatient about the Moarteen. Patience is difficult. 😅
- Oh! Great photo! Gave me the idea that the next sub exclusive should be a Tabac brush ( since Tabac is universally liked ;-) ), and a Tabac straight razor.
  
  I already have plans for a Stank Shank®, of course 😅
