Thanks. Yeah, Terre d'Hermes EDT is one of the handful of universally recognized 'masterpiece' fragrances. In Summer of 2016, just 3 months into my new fascination with fragrances, I ran into Terre d'Hermes EDT and that sample strip was a love at first smell. I knew immediately that I just smelled something that's a 10/10 fragrance. I bought a bottle right away and then after research found out it was a very heavily awarded and legendary fragrance.
That Mysterium Serum works well for me as a skin care lotion for my face. It's as good as any of my expensive face serums with a fantastic cost-per-ounce by comparison to what you can buy online with other brands meant for women. It's super cool that a men's grooming company actually put out a competitive high-end skin care product worthy of being in a woman's regimen. Men's skin needs gets damaged no differently than a woman's. In fact, men who work in harsh environments need even more protection and repair assistance for their skin.
Tim, agree it is a performer, if you get carried away with amout of product or follow a great soap/cream that is kind to the skim it can leave a bit of a residue/finish. The excess is easily cleared with a damp cloth, but it definitely makes most soaps and creams better. Definitely a nice product and good value.

Menthol Monday's Shave Cold Water Wash C.O. Bigelow Jayaruh #220 Gem Feather Weight Gem Blue Star SE CWR Osage Rub This week I am using my Jayaruh #220 brush which commemorates my one year in Vietnam from March 8, 1968, to March 5, 1969. It has been 51 years since I first landed in Vietnam. My prep was just a cold water rinse. The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 brush. I did two passes with the Gem Feather Weight razor with a Gem Blue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
