Wholly Kaw SS & AS - Fougère Bouquet
@MrEE Evan's LE w/TGN badger
Seiko 6/8 Kamisori
2.5 passes with the Seiko today, no issues with crimson fluid leakage. Awesome WK lather, plenty of volume, nice residual slickness, great face feel. This iteration is a previous formula to the current Sierro base, both still sold. No after shave balm today, only the matching AS. Skin feel after several hours still hard to beat with any combination.
Fougère Bouquet is near the top of the list of the fougères in my den, could easily be a daily driver for me if variety wasn't so much fun. All day longevity, very complex & pleasant fragrance, much like SV's Felce Aromatica or the original paco rabannne's pour homme.
Here's WK's description:
-------
Clean, crisp and fresh scent. Inviting mix of sweet and spicy. Not cloying and overpowering. Damp, green and earthy. The scent blooms while lathering. The clean scent lingers post shave.
A complex blend of essential oils and fragrance oils with main notes of oakmoss, lavender and bergamot and secondary notes of sandalwood, cedar and other woody notes. The base notes include coumarin, tonka bean, oakmoss, musk and ambergris. Synthetic versions of musk, ambergris, oakmoss are used in the blend.
Atranol free Veramoss is used instead of Oakmoss. Atranol is a chemical found in natural Oakmoss which has been found to be an allergen.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!
