At this point in the year, it seems like summer is winding down. Back to school commercials are running, baseball players are tearfully retiring, and Brett Favre is jokingly (maybe?) offering his services as quarterback. In truth, we are actually only about half way through the warm weather. I typically use bay rums in the summer, so I figured this was a perfect time to review the Sudsy Soapery “Citrus & Bay” shaving soap.

Razorock XXX Shaving Soap and Aftershave Review
In case you missed it, the Razorock “XXX” line made my list of favorite scent combinations. But I figured this shaving soap and aftershave splash were due for their own review.
Barrister & Mann Diamond Shaving Soap Review
Happy Tuesday, everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic Fourth of July holiday (if you’re from the U.S.). I decided to take a few extra days off (aside from writing a post that lost me followers and earned me a pepper spray threat). But we’re back to the traditional wet shaving today and a summer-focused shaving soap review. With the passing of the Fourth, we’ve really hit the dog days of summer, and I was thinking about the one thing that combines celebrating America with those dog days: baseball.
Penhaligon’s Blenheim Bouquet Review
I’ve owned the Blenheim Bouquet Eau de Toilette for several years now (even though I’m just getting around to reviewing it), but I wanted to try the full Blenheim experience, so I picked up a few more flanker products in the line.
Truefitt and Hill West Indian Limes Review
Few scents capture the breezy easiness of summer like lime. Gin and tonics, limeade (yes, it’s better than lemonade), and lime slices rubbed on grilled corn. These are all some of my favorite things during summer. If you haven’t tried the last one, make it a requirement at your next cookout. Grill up some ears of corn, rub a lime wedge over your ear (of corn), and sprinkle a little salt on it. You’ll never use butter again. Truefitt & Hill’s “West Indian Limes” line continues that tradition of warm weather and citrus scents. In fact, Truefitt & Hill has been providing its lime-scented fragrances for almost one hundred fifty years, since the reign of Queen Victoria.
