  • Brush: Farvour Turn Crafts w/ C&H v12 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Ralf Aust 6/8, Full Hollow Square Point
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Hygge v2
  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Hygge v2 Aftershave Splash
  • Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Hygge v2 EdP

7 razors, 7 sets of Mammoth. I've reached the end and saved the best for last. Hygge is just phenomenal. It's one of those sets I wish I would've tried a lot sooner and one that will most definitely be refilled when it runs out. It's hard for me to pick out any one note in it, as I'm always just captivated by the entirety of it. Hygge is a solid 10/10.

I'm proud of all the razors I have in my rotation. I have some really nice razors imo, like the Gen 1 Fili or Celebrated W&B, but this Ralf Aust is ๐Ÿ. Hands down. I am just completely in love with it and have been since the moment I held it. Its size, shape, scales and performance. This is the razor I picture giving my son his first straight shave with, and one day giving to him. I truly hope it makes it that far. I touched up the edge on a Shobu Kiita last night and todays shave was just wonderful. Smooth and light each stroke on each pass. Close and comfortable shave, no nicks or irritation.
