A late shave, and I underloaded. Decent result, though.
Have a good night!
₣₦Ⱬ₦ ₴₱₦₣₵₮₦ made a really nice lather this morning. I missed the sale for this scent, but was gifted a smoosh. It's a wonderful scent!
I'm not saying that P.S. Rittenhouse goes with Floïd, but Floïd is nice.
Have a good day.
Floid goes with exerything 😃

1x WTG, touch ups XTG on moustache area (bad idea, 1 weeper) and WTG elsewhere (better idea). Not bad; a socially acceptable shave.
Gotta say the fragrance is a massive letdown. It's a roll on oil with essential oils in it, and it smells interesting for about a minute and then just like vetiver for a few hours. Oh well.
