Hello friends,
With the change of seasons comes rituals that people have kept since the beginning of civilization. Many take the time to root through their items, sort them and display them with tags labeling them with a compromise somewhere between sentimental value and the cost of waste disposal. Others will find themselves infatuated with members of our (and occasionally another) specie wherein they dance around like wood nymphs preparing for a celebration, the likes of which have not been seen since the days of Dionysus. Still others prepare for the lengthening of days by rotating their daily accessories.
I am far from an organized person and have the greatest wife ever...ever. This leaves me in a position to organize (yes, I know what I just said) my ever increasing collection of shaving gear. I started putting away scents like dragon's blood, dark rhassoul, warmer bayrums and sandalwoods; I then started moving my lighter and cooler scents to the front and placed a few before the shrine I keep to myself. I have also reorganized my razors to favor the ones that seem to agree more with my skin and placed the harshest into long term storage (6 inches away).
Beyond the shaving I have changed my bathing soap to a nice light berry scent, my colognes to cleaner scents and my lotions and lip balms have even followed suit.
How many of you follow or plan to follow similar plans? Keeping with the flow of the spring sensation what scents/other characteristics give the lively sensation of rebirth?
