Happy Birthday!View attachment 77535

Rather than a pamper, today's birthday shave was a simple yet effective affair. The citrus blast was exactly what was required to blow away the fug of last night's first outing to the pub for a good few months - although clearly not enough to stop me posting on an SOTD page from August (thanks @donnie_arko ) Now to celebrate in style - sanding and painting the living room

Firstly thanks to those of you who've wished me felicitations
R. - It is a scent class that I have only come to appreciate recently - it's a bit like patchouli, in the sense that, done well it is really nice but done badly it smells of cheap incense. I would suggest this particular soap wouldn't do well for you - the vegan base is very good but - it is very heavily perfumed. If your skin wasn't happy with MT Dark Limes or Black Beer - it would probably have a fit with the Egyptian Oud. It is borderline for me and I do not have sensitive skin. If you get on with PAA soap - Harvest Moon is oud heavy. The scent I used I can't tell you much other than the name, the fact it is parfum and it was imported from the Gulf States. The rest of the label is in Arabic which I can't read. It was a gift from my partner but I don't think it was that expensive - around £50 for 100 ml. I like it - lasts well and stays 'close' to the skin, it doesn't project massively but that is useful for certain situations. Cheers - I.I need to add something Oud heavy to my collection. I used to have an Oud Intense Clone and enjoyed it.
