Monday, February 10, 2025: Altas Shaves 2 - Day 10
- Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations “Nebulagance” - TurnNShave Quartermoon 26mm synthetic
- Razor: Eldrormr Industries - MM24
- Blade: Accuforge - GEM Microcoat (2)
- Lather: Dove - Sensitive Skin
- Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two Aftershave splash
- Post Shave: Stirling - Glacial Unscented Aftershave balm
- Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two EdT
Dove Sensitive Skin is fragrance-free and was an acceptable choice for today to keep me on theme. I got the same result that I get with my nicer soaps, but the shaving experience was significantly worse. One could get by just using something like this to shave, but I’m glad I don’t need to.
+2 points for soap with at least half the same scent notes

- Lather: Barrister & Mann - Promises - Soap
- Post Shave: Pinaud - Clubman - Aftershave
- Post Shave: Goodfellow & Co. - Face Lotion - Kelp & Sea Mineral
This soap is stronger than I remember it. I left it open in the bathroom and could smell it in the other room!
Does this mean you’re out, or taking your Airbud today?
I think I’m out. I think I decided there should be a consensus to stay in, and there wasn’t. Mostly I didn’t want to use my unscented soap!
I get it.
And yeah, unscented soap is no way to live life IMO.

- lather: Barrister and Mann - Latha Unscented
Atlas daily points: 2 points for scent notes +1 for crossposting on lemmy and reddit
Atlas cumulative points: 40
Unscented alcohol splash seems odd to me. People being careful about avoiding frags on their skin, but using alcohol must be a small customer group
It’s actually not alcohol based, latha was a weird era for Will
Oh, interesting!
