Emptied out the last of a couple of M&S Harvard aftershaves ... fancied replacements, so on order.
When I was in the shaving hobby I never finished anything. The fun, pleasure and satisfaction of the hobby was new gear of all variety and kinds. Every day the postman brought me something new to try out and experiment with " see for myself whether this works" or plain enjoy. I have always thought of myself as simple in needs and very practical. I love Stoic and Cynic philosophy. But the indulgences and pleasure of the shaving hobby was a real contradiction, one that I questioned and wondered about a lot back then. lol
Utilitarianism and practicality is not at the heart of the shaving hobby though its why most of us start. The happiness, excitement, distraction and giddy sensory pleasure of it takes over and drives though many of us try to deny it out of shame that it's not us really. LOL
It reminds me of the women's hairdresser shops when I was a kid
