  • Lather: Acqua di Parma
  • Post Shave: Acqua di Parma

Was yesterday the day when this competition went off the rails? With prominent contestants walden and priusaurus going for non-literal interpretations of the rules and violations of integer arithmetics, it may be over. We'll see.

Anyway, this is a scent notes SOTD with ADP matching sandalwood, citrus, and vetiver.

Non literal, like calling Chiseled Face the artisan who made "LASSCO - Woody Lavender" perhaps?
