SOTD – A real man’s shave cream

If you like Pina Coladas, long romantic walks on the beach, and getting caught in the rain…then, Cyril Salter’s French Vetiver probably isn’t for you. On the other hand, if smearing Dave’s Insanity Sauce (one of the hottest hot-sauces on the planet) on just about everything you eat is more your style, and your idea of a good meal-ender is an Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic cigar, then the fetid aroma of burning wild grasses inherent in the French Vetiver shave cream is an absolute must-have. I love this stuff! My wife and most of my friends hate it! But today, it gave another wonderfully pleasurable shave, even matched up with the 1962 Gillette Fat Boy, a razor I really don’t like very much. Finished off with the truly addictive Booster June Clover aftershave and a shot of Trumper’s Coral Skin Food, a truly memorable shave was had.
