Shave of the Day: Saturday November 6, 2021


Razor: Wolfman WR2 (1.05 Gap)
Blade: Perma-Sharp (1st use)
Brush: SawDust Creations “Caramel Latte”
Soap: Declaration Grooming/Chatillon Lux Gratiot League Square  
Aftershave: Declaration Grooming/Chatillon Lux Gratiot League Square  

I have not been able to put my new Wolfman all week. I was initially worried that this might be too aggressive for day-to-day use but have not found this to be the case. 

This soap is Declarion Grooming’s previous (and my preferred) iteration to their Milksteak base. Consistent with what I’ve had in the past from them-easy to lather, solid consistency and sheen. The top notes of leather and musk come out of the soap immediately, although not as heavy on the leather as Declaration’s Cur et Épices. The aftershave is highly concentrated and I make a habit to add a couple drops of water to my hand before applying.
