        I don’t recall this happening in the past, but I kept getting whiffs of the soap long after the shave. Very rare for that to happen for me as I don’t think my nose is very sensitive.

          I’ve had that happen with the aftershave. I still have some of it left and I use it after some coffee-scented soaps. I talked with Will about this at the Maggard Meetup this year. He went into a long explanation of how coffee and poo have some common scents. It was late in the day, and there are dispensaries in Adrian, MI. I thought, perhaps, he visited one at lunch, so I didn’t pursue it.

    Tiny Terror Tuesday - But Why? 17 Dec 2024

    • Brush: Omega - 11047 Mixed Midget Badger and Boar
    • Razor: Weck Hair - Shaper (blue translucent scales)
    • Blade: Kismet - Rostfrei, Polymer beschichtet
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann – Terror
    • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann – Terror

    u/Eldrormr’s latest fascination with tiny brushes joined forces with his affinity for freezing his nerve endings to create Tiny Terror Tuesday, and couldn’t let him have all the … fun? … alone.

    The Mixed Midget is a much better brush than the tiny size suggests and I enjoy the frankincense and mint (that latter note isn’t in the description, but my nose wants it to be there) scent of Terror. As always, after a few moments, I was reminded of the copy for Terror: “But the creeping, bone-shattering cold of the Arctic does not abide weakness.”. This thing is cold and only surpassed by the balm.

    Really great shave with this slightly eccentric setup.

    Of course, I have already rubbed my tired morning eyes with Terror fingers. First of many today, I’m sure. Sigh.
