Thursday, November 14, 2024: SLS - Nocturnal

  • Brush: Yaqi - Mysterious Space 24mm 2-band Badger
  • Razor: Rockwell - 6C
  • Blade: Bic - Chrome Platinum (2)
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Nocturne
  • Post: Stetson - Cooling Moisture Aftershave splash
  • Post: Stirling - Glacial Unscented Aftershave balm
  • Frag: Stirling - Stirling Gentleman EdT

Tonight I used the Yaqi badger to compare it with the v24 Fanchurian I've been testing out over the last few days. The Fanchurian is certainly softer and denser, but the Yaqi honestly still made a great lather. It does do a worse job holding the lather in the knot (a lot falls through to the bottom) but still performed admirably.

Nocturne is a great scent. Unfortunately my wife doesn't love it, so I probably will stop with just the sample.

Praise Friday.
