It’s officially fucking August now, bitches and that means it’s time to bust out my second favorite scent, not only in the wet shaving world but PERIOD. Sorry fellow followers of The One True Stag, but Valley still takes number one. Anyway, since I sprayed roughly 45ml of the EdP last year, I absolutely had to up the ante this year, so I got everyfuckingthing that has the Stag and this shall I subside.

The Silk soap base is a LOT softer than the original base and I can see how it’ll disappear a lot faster, especially during the break in process of this new Semogue brush. Keeping in mind the brush didn’t want to cooperate today, it still finally whipped into a nice and creamy lather that performed well. I’ve never had much of an issue with the MMOC and I love SE razors, so that’s not very challenging.

Post shave was neat because I got to follow up the aftershave with the beard oil on my beard, then aftershave balm on my face, then finally the beard balm. Finishing off with 7 sprays of Stag EdP just because makes me feel like a walking fucking Stag bomb! This will surely be an interesting month and I have no doubt in my mind that I will be tasting Stag in my mask all day.
