Rosy Friday Morning

  • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur Unnumbered 8/8" ( hollow ground, stainless steel, round point)
  • Lather: Geo.F. Trumper Rose
  • Aftershave: Mäurer und Wirtz Tabac Wild Ride
  • Fragrance: Mäurer und Wirtz Tabac Man Gravity

I bought this cream during a London trip last spring, and I really enjoy the simple rose scent. The cream is also stupid simple to lather. Great shave with the big Frio 8/8.

Gravity is more earthy and spicy and the transition from the simple rose to it is a nice progression.

Gravity is great, but I struggle to wrap my head around Wild Ride. What do you think of it?

I'm not a fan, it's a bit of a bland fresh fragrance. Definitely not "wild"😅. It's pleasant enough, nothing special

I called it "mild ride" before.

That fits with my experience too 😆
