Great video, Matthew! I wasn't sure what to use today, but after your video, I'm going with Clown Fruit, a Prismatic with a 7 O'clock yellow, and a PAA brush. (Mine has googly eyes though😂)
Great looking shave Matthew. 👌 I also find soap scents "mature" with age and some become nicer the older they get. Dry and dusty here, it's been quite a dry winter and spring heading into summer.👌🤠👌
@@unclelshaves the grass here has really thinned out and the little wild onions are popping up. I hope this is the last mow of fall for me. Thanks for watching uncleL!
@@lawrence1md I did not want to tell you or comment on it but I'm one that remembers the shenanigans from them in the old days and so do not buy any of their products. I do have vetiver scents as well as root beer in other brands. Again great shave and hope you have a great day !
@@daveinky ought oh, I have heard this before but I’m not sure when that exactly happened. Maybe before my time. Thanks for watching even though the controversy
@@daveinky so tell me about that Kenyon SE Safety Razor, how sentimental is it to you? I’ve been looking for one and have always turned up empty handed.
Great! Well, you're probably right with the scent and it's probably the wormwood where you're getting the root beer scent. I did have a little go around with Doug about this specific edition. I bought the body soap of this edition and loved it, so the following year I bought about the whole line. I didn't like it at all and it gave me a headache just smelling it. It did smell different to me, but Doug said it was the same. After some back and forth, he did admit that they had changed suppliers of the wormwood and it was harvested from a different place geographically. It's just a guess, but I think if you got the latest one, it might smell different to you. I might have to hit you up sometime for a sample of this one and see if it does give me a headache, because I didn't get the shave soap, only the body soap. Take care!
@@lastshadow9351 did you keep the body soap label? For me this one is slightly different than the clown fruit from last year. Anytime you need a sample give me a shout. Thanks for watching Ian!
@@lawrence1md I didn't, but PAA only did the Son of Clownfruit one year. I think they delt with a lot of confusion and fuss, so they haven't done it again. For sure I'll let you know, thanks!
@@alspencer2794 I would wear a mask in the past but I figured why not expose myself and hopefully it would boost my allergy tolerance. I don’t think it’s been working hehehehe. Thanks for watching Al!
If that does smell like root beer I'd probably like it too. There's no chance I will ever buy another razor unless I damaged my Ascension Twist and had to replace it. In fact I'm trying not to buy any more soaps or aftershaves, although I need to put in an order with PAA for more Star Jelly, alum, and another Cube. It does make it hard to resist when you get on the websites, and I've gotten the urge to try some of the Seaforth products after your previous video.
It's funny, but I never got the root beer or candy thing that most people get from this. It smells like a cocktail with an herbal liqueur to me. I get more of the floral side than the sweet side.
This felt like a quick one Matthew! Love the label on that soapp haha pennywise pennywise
@@seanstapelfeld yes, somehow it went quick. Thanks for watching Sean!

@@Leenunes007 👀! Did you get the mashup that one year? It was clown fruit and rabid banana. Thanks for watching Lee
@@lawrence1md I certainly did! That's a really great combination. I wish they made a splash, too.
@@Leenunes007 this year the mashup is clown fruit and monstroso, it has a matching splash.
Totally agree with you on the Prismatic, one of the things I love about it is the audio feedback.
@@Indyshaver it’s a great little razor. Thanks for watching!
Awesome Awesome Matthew!

Love the scent of Rootbeer !
@@daveinky do you like the vetiver scent? There is a mashup with clown fruit and monstroso. I was tempted to get it. Thanks for watching Dave!

@@lawrence1md No worries, I don't hold it against people that use them. Just my personal decision. 👍

Nice shave Matthew
@@garys_shave it was a nice shave. Thanks for watching Gary!
I agree, the Prismatic and Original DOC are unfortunately overlooked by many
@@Tobins_throwbacks I should try the original doc! Thanks for watching Tobin!

Know what you mean about mowing and dust. Gives me a chance to use some of my leftover Covid masks😂🙈

@@chrislj2890 I’d say get some samples. If you order another cube. Thanks for watching Chris!
@@lawrence1md
Samples are the gateway to disaster, lol.
@@chrislj2890 they can be. It scratches your itch to try something but if you like it you are hooked!
@@lawrence1md
Yep, that's how I got addicted to peanut butter and jelly sammiches.

@@Leenunes007 it may be my nose and brain. Although bargs root beer is my wife’s favorite and she too thought it had the same scent.
