Brush: Farvour Turn Craft Eye of Jupiter 27mm Motherlode Knot
Razor: Wolfman Razors WR4 (Aluminum)
Blade: Feather Artist Club Professional [2]
Lather: House of Mammoth - Dammusi - Soap
Post Shave: Gentleman’s Nod - Calabria - Aftershave
Fragrance: Gentleman’s Nod - Musashi - Eau de Parfum
It’s #mammothmonday in #sampleseptember, and today’s sample is Dammusi. The scent is beautiful. I really want to love it, but I think it’s just too powdery for me. I’m curious if the aftershave has the same powdery-forward notes.
The WR4 was a quick, smooth shaver. I still need to find a snazzy aluminum handle to use instead of the Razorock stainless steel handle. The balance is off just enough that it’s noticeable during the shave.
Calabria offered a citrus-forward, Mediterranean escape. An excellent new scent from GN. While Calabria’s opening is much brighter, I thought I picked up some heart notes that were similar to Musashi. As such, I used the Musashi fragrance as well.

I’m surprised that Calabria isn’t a chilli scent, they put that in everything, including ice cream 😅
😂 Now you have me wondering if there are any good chili scented soaps.
Abbate Y La Mantia’s Vulcano 💖 (Warning, for some, the anise note is stronger than the chilli. In my nose, it’s mostly a chilli scent)
Thanks for the suggestion. I need to explore more of the AylM product line.
