Another great Monday morning shave with Tusk. Hygge and Opulence are both incredible scents that hit just right. Admittedly, I copied this pairing from @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social, and it works well.

A rare Shire trickhole shave (for me). It’s pretty much my favourite Mammoth scent, but I wish there was a Shire splash without cooling agent.
The B3 knot is pretty much what I want a badger knot to feel like, and I’m using it today to set the comparison bar for tomorrow’s floppy Gelousy knot use. If using the Gelousy knot doesn’t spark joy then, I’ll rip it out again to deepen the hole and reduce its loft.
Despite my whiny tone, this was a wonderful shave and a good start into the week.

I feel this way about all of the HoM splashes I have; especially (Mood )?Indigo, Beloved, and Hygge.
Same. I have Almond Leather and Santa Noir, which are also warm scents that don’t need cooling agents.
