Initial blast is harsh. Then a really nice lavender...sadly, doesn't last very long. Then it morphs into a sweet vanilla. It's an "ok" stank...not my favorite. Dr. Mrs. Primo doesn't hate it.
I thought we already talked about this? You don’t remember? Our friend Bill sent me this label to replace the horribly askew label that Simpson originally (and drunkenly) put on the brush. At the time, I reached out to them and they really didn’t care….besides offering to send me another label at my cost. I have not bought a nice Simpson product since, save for some cheap Trafalgars to bash the knots out from. Yes, the label is from a previous era of handles, but it is straight at least.
I can't overemphasize the importance of reading labels. I was in a hurry yesterday and purchased some paper trowels. They are absolutely useless. And I don’t trust stairs anymore because they’re always up to something and never properly labeled. Psst...can you keep a secret? I changed all the labels in my Bride's spice rack. She doesn't know anything yet, but the thyme is cumin.
Thursday, May 2 ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~Semogue TSN Final Edition 1/50~~Gillette New SC/Feather YSL M7 ASAfter work and after mowing the lawn, I needed a shower and a shave. The Gillette New SC is a beaut and the second-use Feather blade was tops. YSL M7 for the well-deserved finish.
Day 14 May 2nd New Improved ‘Bostonian’ w PermaSharp APShave SynBad/ Poculi JOHS Blood on Steel LE SS Thayers Brut Azzaro Pour Home A new EdT to the den this week. I remember seeing a posting quite some time ago that said that Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica was a dupe of Azzaro Pour Homme. That surprised me as I thought it was an SVoriginal. Anyway, fast forward to me finding this Azzaro at Winners (Canadian TJ Maxx). I picked it up. I can see why the Felce isconsidered a dupe. It seems not quite as‘fresh’ as the SV, but very nice regardless.
