A very late SOTN, but happy October to everyone! It’s actually one of my favourite months, favourite season in general and also: the start of spooky season in preparation for Halloween.
Today’s soap is one of my first autumnal soaps I ever got, and it smells very similar to a Yankee Candle of the same name (my mom and me are avid fans of scented candles). It’s a Stirling soap, so it’s kind of a neverending story (haven’t used this one that much, but it still looks full!). It almost explodes with lather when a big brush is used and guarantees a good shave. Combined with an Ol’ Reliable like the Ever-Ready, it’s just relaxed and comfortable shaving. I still really like pairing Pomona with different scents, wore the EdP all day again and wanted to include it in my shave too.
Thanks, it fits even better than I expected 👌🏻
