  • Brush: Zenith – r/Wetshaving exclusive MOAR BOAR (31 mm × 57 mm bleached boar)
  • Razor: Koraat – r/Wetshaving exclusive Moarteen (15/16", full hollow, carbon steel)
  • Lather: Abbate Y La Mantia – Koké
  • Post Shave: Abbate Y La Mantia – Koké
  • Fragrance: House of Mammoth / Noble Otter / Declaration Grooming – Cerberus

The Maggard Meet FOMO is real, especially those BaM "Intro to fragrance kits" seem great. Alas, it's too difficult to me to justify travelling intercontinentally for a hobby fair. Maybe some time in the future.

Koké is great. The pear and musk are fresh and warm at the same time, sweet without being cloying or even gourmand, really a unique fragrance category in my den. I had a great shave to start the week, time to start the grind.
