    04.08.2024 - Blu Tobacco, second shave

    • Prep: cold water
    • Razor: Leaf Thorn
    • Blade: snapped BIC Chrome Platinum
    • Brush: RazoRock 400 Noir SE 24 mm
    • Lather: Abbate Y La Mantia - Blu Tobacco
    • Post Shave: Thayer’s Original toner; Natura Siberica ASB gel

    -> 2 pass head shave, very comfortable and refreshing.

    Second use of AYLM Blu Tobacco after only dry shaving my head for a few days. A cool contrast! This was much closer.

    Blu Tobacco is by all means a good soap. Not extraordinary in any category, but good. The scent is to me a perfect summer variant of HoMs Tobacconist, as the added menthol and maritime notes are definitely a good choice for warmer weather. It’s still surprising how easy this hard soap is to lather with synthetic brushes, this one just explodes after a 10 second load. Had enough to do two passes on my head, so I did to not waste any of the good stuff. Really good that our BVWSC event made me curious about AYLM soaps - this one’s a real great scent, plus a travel friendly aluminium tin and puck size.
