Share your shave of the day!
If you’re following along with the Lather Games at the other website, today’s theme is:
Fougère Friday
"Product scent must demonstrably be a fougère (one of the most prevalent fragrance families in men's fashion). It should be marketed as a fougère or classified as one on a reputable site.
Note: The mere presence of lavender, coumarin, and oakmoss in a product does not make it a fougère (nor does their absence necessarily rule the category out)! Ask an expert ahead of time if in doubt.
Caveat: WK Fern Concerto is not eligible for this theme because of reasons. Just ignore that one."

It is kind of hard to describe, but loading MdC Fougère from its container has a sophistication to it. Neither a soap mug nor a plastic tub has this effect.
Like drinking Coke out of a glass bottle?
Yes. Apparently you can still but Coke in glass bottles. It’s made for Mexico. Old formula, real sugar, glass bottles. I want some!
That doesn’t sound very sophisticated to me… Like drinking champagne out of a glass bottle, maybe?
Like drinking Champagne out of a Waterford champagne glass instead of a paper cup. Sort of along those lines :)
Have you ever tried it? It’s quite sophisticated. At least compared to a plastic bottle.
I have tried it. But during my days ineuniversity, I had a friends who claimed that
coke in can >> coke in glass bottle > any other way of serving coke
Not sure that this is true, but that was a very strongly held opinion 🤷
