Oct 22, 2024 - Tea Tuesday - Jasmine Retreat

gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social · 4 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Great setup! Is JGT another great tea scent for shaving? Noble Otter already has TNeV; a tea scent that would be hard to top.

sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social · 4 pts · 1y (1 reply)

The two scents are very different from each other, so not really a fair comparison. JGT is a great scent on its own. That said, if I had to choose only one to keep, it would be TNeV.

Well, TNeV is one of the absolute greats IMO.

I love Roam Two. That is all.

I am very curious to try the OG Roam, but I haven't seen it pop up on the zaar yet. Anyone want to trade a smush of Two for a smush of the OG? :)

Have a great one y'all. ✌️

I killed my tub of OG Roam so can't send a smush, but I can tell you they're very different. Both are great, and I'm not sure if I have a favorite between the two of them.

Not surprised that the OG was also great. I’ve yet to meet a BaM scent that I didn’t like.

I have OG Roam in Soft Hearts. PM me (ideally on matrix) if you're still interested in a trade!

I love this Sparschweinchen, but today it made me really impatient about the Moarteen. Patience is difficult. 😅

Oh! Great photo! Gave me the idea that the next sub exclusive should be a Tabac brush ( since Tabac is universally liked ;-) ), and a Tabac straight razor.

I already have plans for a Stank Shank®, of course 😅

gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Of course! I should know better. Once you have the catchy name, there's nothing to stop you! :)

djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social · 2 pts · 1y

You know it :)
