After spending the week chasing through subway systems in some of the most exciting cities around the world, it was good to get back home to DC. And that was made even more true because I found some relief from the DC heat and humidity in my newest Jabonman soap - lima mentolado. This spicy, lime soap is super mentholated.
The wonderful soap was wiped away, along with what little whiskers I had, by the Joe Chandler damascus. The menthol of the Jabonman was carried on in the Lucido and it was all capped with the incredibly creamy citrus of Sigilli's Ferfæn. What a way to end the week!
Gentlemen, you've all produced amazing shaves this week. Thank you for indulging me and allowing me to submit my humble SOTD offerings!He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
