I hadn’t used Voyager forever, but completion is really well implemented there. I may consider abandoning Jerboa…

24 shaves - very impressive!
Cool soap label!

The lather was nice, very nice. I was lucky that my vote for Batters Up didn’t win.
Have a good night!
Cost per shave being low seems to be consensus – but I’m not sure if I want to commit to having MdC in the rotation for the next 20 years 🤷

I put Autumn Ash back into the cabinet – and it’s on the to-kill block. The base is really great, even though the sweetness is a bit much for me now.
Have a good day!
If it was less expensive, that would facilitate the choice 😎
Keep them busy at all cost!
How’s the MdC soap? Thinking about getting Agrumes…
Thanks for the heads-up! Letters tô Germany are pretty fast!
Thursday, September 19, 2024: Narcisse + Stank
After yesterday’s September BVWSC shave, this was a preview for October’s. Narcisse is very nice, but after getting rid of my bottle of Floid, I’m missing a neutral, fits-with-everything aftershave. Maybe I’ll try the stuff @WegianWarrior@sub.wetshaving.social uses.
The Epsilon is to my mind much more stanky than good old Tabac – it feels like opening a hermetically sealed box of your grandfather. It has its charm, but I haven’t aquired this aquired taste yet.
Have a good evening!
Wednesday, September 18, 2024: Buena Vista!
Yesterday, my sense of smell was developed as ever – but unfortunately, everyone in my family is getting ill, and my nose is completely stuffed. So, I only got a general sense of good smell out of the soap (but I’m looking forward to retry it once I’ve fully recovered) – I will not commit to anise or not anise.
The base is really good, and produces a creamy lather without much effort. I’m happy to have tried this, and my intent of focusing my aquisitions on European shaving soaps is wavering. Well done for suggesting this, @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social, and thanks for the generous smush!
Anyways, have a good evening!
Sounds great, looking forward to trying it myself!
Narcisse is on its way. May the customs have mercy on you.

I loaded heavy, and this was a nice shave with a good after-shave feel. My deception with AYLM is receding.
Have a good night!
Btw, would you be interested that I forward you dj’s smush of Don José? He was very generous, and the banana is very strong, and with the menthol, it’s really not my thing 🤷

The after shave reminds me of a scent I know, but I cannot put my finger on it. There’s not much skinfood in it, and it gives a good burn.
Have a good night!
