Tallow + Steel - Shag Island Bladeworks "Bullwinkle" | TGN Finest Ever-Ready SE | Gem PTFE (1) This one will no doubt be polarizing. But for me, it was well worth the wait. Shag opens with a thick herbaceous and earthy fragrance. It quickly fills out with bold resinous notes with a pronounced smokiness. This is not an overall smoky fragrance, however, but rather lending the impression of smoldering herbs and flowers. Mid-shave, sharp citrus pushes through melding very well with the ever-present resinous notes, never having abandoned the earthiness. Despite its individual notes, Shag has enough green herbs and floral to keep it riding the line between sweet and bitter. Regardless, patchouli detractors need not apply, because there's no mistaking it in Shag. This a very complex and artfully crafted fragrance.
