A combined shipment from Stirling and Barrister and Mann arrived today. From Stirling, I finally got my replacement Varen tub (and added the frag) and got a tub of Mountain man to replace my soon-to-be-killed sample of it.
Braeburn was pointed out to me as a possible alternative to SBS Teacher’s Pet (now sadly UnObTaInIuM) and it was a great tip. Dickens is a replacement from balm that has… not aged well, and Beaudelaire was on discount and I certainly can’t resist trying a Fougère with Mousse de Saxe. Especially not if this is how Will describes it:
edit: I just only now realised that Beaudelaire the frag isn’t spelled like the Baudelaire the author.
Do you have the Silver Mountain Water to go along with Mountain Man?
No, I still didn’t pull the trigger on that one. Inevitably, I will at some point. It’s just too good to resist.
Yes it is. Your post reminded me to put some Silver Mountain Man Mondays in my future.
Silver Mountain Man Mondays sounds like a great new edition to the canon. It should probably include a Bowie knife instead of a razor though ;-)
With a Bowie knife you’re always prepared to do the “That’s not a knife. That’s a knife” scene from Crocodile Dundee. I find SMW to be a terrific EdP for spring/summer. Very high-key.
In a few years, when free AI is powerful enough, you know there will be a LG contestant generating a Wetshave Dundee parody move where “that’s a knoife” refers to a Fili 14 or one of those 12/8" Ukranian straights.
Yay more Varen!
I really should try Beaudelaire.
In case you were wondering what Will has to say on the topic:
Will used to market much harder on reddit 10 years ago, it seems 😂
I have such a dislike of skull graphics, aviator sunglasses, and random things wearing Santa hats. The current label is untenable for someone with my specific aversions.
That is a very unfortunate, what were the odds?
Varen 💚 💚
Man, you had some solid stuff come in!
💯
Really happy with this mail call
All around great hauls! I myself really cherish the graphics chosen for Beaudelaire 💀🕶️ Also congrats on the new brushes… you should have a brush for every occasion now 😉

I thought so 20 brushes ago, yet I’m still finding brushless occasions
