Love how the atomic rocket looks. I think I prefer the bulb one. Fireworks sounds great for this time of the year. Great shave Tobin. Hopefully I’ll be able to catch the stream tonight.
Great review Tobin! It's so good to see you raising your daughter with patriotism in mind. I have 2 daughters and 2 son's and I couldn't be more proud of their patriotism! Their mom and I have tried to raise them on good ole fashioned American values. Your outdoor shaves and adventures remind me so much of how our family is. We love the great outdoors here in the Rocky Mountains.... camping, fishing, hiking, shooting,etc. God bless the USA! 🎆🎉💥
Thanks, Nathan! For us Old School is the only way to do it! Our daughter flies an American flag in her bedroom takes up half her bedroom wall on the other side of her room she has a Thin Blue Line Flag. So proud of her🙏 One of these days we're going to make a road trip through the Rookies and when we do I may have to hit you up for any location ideas! I can Google all day long but asking people who know the brush is ten times better! Have a good one!
I'll use them for a few weeks and let you know witch one I like more I have a feeling I'm going to like them both I haven't gotten a brush from Phoenix yet that I didn't like but yes I will report back on which one I do like more
One of the wonderful things about what we do is the huge amount of scents we are exposed to on a regular basis, and thus how open we are to those scents bringing back memories and feelings. For you fireworks brings memories of summer and your mum's birthday, but gor Brits it is the 5th of November which is recalled.
Nice shave. Interesting scent but knowing Doug it smells great. After trying a frw fan knots i lean towards the bulb. Have a great week and awesome show later today
I received my AR fan knot and couldn't believe how large the handle was. Also the knot reminded me of the one on my Pellegrino which is too floppy IMHO. That being said I packed it up and sent it to a friend. Never even got it wet. I guess YMMV is a thing. Happy 4th buddy. - Kevin W
I agree Kevin, that's something that I'll discuss in my review of it. That it is floppier than I like. A lot of guys were begging for a fan and he finally delivered. I knew I'd likely prefer the Hybrid bulb more and I was right. Have a good one!
@@Tobins_throwbacks I recently acquired a small G5C knot on an APShave Co handle, and I have been very impressed with the results. The knot is soft and luxurious, and it provides an excellent experience. I am so pleased with my purchase that I recently ordered a scratch and dent brush with a 28mm G5C fan knot from the same company. I am eagerly anticipating trying out the new brush handle and knot.
Thank you for this very intereseting review ( as an non US citizen that is ). You mention picking up fireworks and I immediatly say: "don't pick up fireworks, they might explode" ( perhaps too Dutch / too many accidents happing over here due to fireworks ) Never mind, I was ramblin on. That US citizenship / Patriotism ( or how you might interpret it ) is a very big thing for you guys ain't it ? Oh well, thank you again Tobin !
That's because the Dutch are crazy 😉 You're supposed to wait awhile before picking them up😊 And yes sir, loving one's own country is a big deal to us. We believe everyone should love the place they call home no matter where on Earth it is. America is my home, and it will be my children's home. Hope this makes sense. Have a good one!
Nice shave Tobin! I had a splash sample of space of July that I loved. I wonder if it will make a return this summer? Fireworks sounds intriguing. Have a great week.
Thanks, Aaron! It would be cool if he did! I hope he gives the community another chance to grab it. It definitely falls into the same kind of category as this one, I genuinely love these kind of fragrances. Have a good one!
Black cats and m80 for the win. My cousin was an explosives expert and sniper in the military and made my dad a firework that looked like a big m80, it was the equivalent of about a 1/4 stick of dynamite. My dad lit it and threw it out in the road, and when it went off it blew a hole in the pavement. I thought it blew the windows of our house blew out. When I looked at my dad he was just smiling and said “Now that’s a firework”! 😂 I still remember the sound and the feel of the concussion from it.
I bought fireworks before they had the aftershave. I don’t think I’d like to wear that scent so I never picked up the splash once available and usually use creosote since it is unique, summery, and does not have a soap. Enjoy the weekend.
Very good Tobin! PAA is one of my favorites and it's not by magic or anything like that. They've put in a lot hard work and effort and it's taken years to become one of the top shops in the US and they are as unique as some of their scents. This is definitely a unique one, but it's also a fun scent and that's awesome. The fan knot is interesting, but having that shape already I think I like the hybrid shape, the cross between the bulb and the fan, the best. Anymore I think that's the shape that most brushes are. The open comb looks great and I look forward to the review. I'll be seeing you later today with your Thursday Night Live! Take care!
Trend is big knots.. personally I'm not into them.. still got nothing against them taking over.. it's just that I think it would make more sense if artisans would consider offering both (big & small 1s)

Hopefully you can stop in for a minute 🙏
Great thumbnail/sotd pic!

Be glad to point out a few of the best places in the Rockies...... but only a few, the rest are secrets 😉
I'm waiting on both atomic brushes I ordered them last week I can't wait to get them
Nice! I love the hybrid bulb!!
Let me know which one you prefer if you think of it I'd love to hear your opinion genuinely I would
I'll use them for a few weeks and let you know witch one I like more I have a feeling I'm going to like them both I haven't gotten a brush from Phoenix yet that I didn't like but yes I will report back on which one I do like more
Very nice review Tobin 😊
Thanks Robert!
🇺🇸🪒💈Would this be a “Boom, lather”?
😁😅 well played sir! I wish I had thought of that! 🙏 I love Zorady' "boom lather"
😂
Phoenix appears to have a diverse and enjoyable range of fragrances.
Very!
Great Shave with Fireworks, always wanted to pick that one up. Reminds me of summer for sure. Ladyfingers and jumping jacks from back in the day.
Thanks, Mike! We had some Jumping Jack's last year, going to try and get some again this year.
Have a good one!

Guy Fawkes Night right? I've always wanted to experience it!
@Tobins_throwbacks yes! But my mum's family are Catholic, so they used it to commemorate his effort rather than celebrate the foiled attempt🤭🤭🤭🤭
I missed this!
It's fantastic! Maybe BTS?
I gotta get my hands on one of those brushes with the bulb knot.
It's Good Stuff Maynard!
Great shave and review sir! Looking forward to W/E Shave tonight!
Thank you! Me too!!!!

Great video 👍 im getting this for a video for November because in the UK, we have bonfire night, so it will be a great shaving theme 🎇🎆
Guy Fawkes right? I've always wanted to come and celebrate that with you guys just to be a part of the experience.
Thanks man!
My first pickup from PAA in a little while. Can’t wait to smell the nostalgic fireworks scent! Also sulfur apparently is really good for your skin 🧨
After it's been on for 30 minutes or so my wife loves it! It is SO nostalgic

4:04 Did you memorize the Preamble from watching too much Schoolhouse Rock , like me?
Partially lol🙏

Black Cats for sure! I keep meaning to buy a T-shirt!
Nice! That's a great memory with the old man!
Thanks Dan!
I wish I had watched this the other day. Great review Tobin now I wish I would have purchased it
I bought fireworks before they had the aftershave. I don’t think I’d like to wear that scent so I never picked up the splash once available and usually use creosote since it is unique, summery, and does not have a soap. Enjoy the weekend.
Thanks Steve, I have a sample of Creosote. It's one I still need to buy. Have a good one!
Nicely shaved. Yes, democracy requires an informed and involved citizenry. Sadly, too few of us do that.
Thanks, Patrick! Amen brother well said.🙏
Nothing wrong with being a Patriot 🇺🇲
Murica!

Very good Tobin! PAA is one of my favorites and it's not by magic or anything like that. They've put in a lot hard work and effort and it's taken years to become one of the top shops in the US and they are as unique as some of their scents. This is definitely a unique one, but it's also a fun scent and that's awesome.

Well said Ian! PAA's library of fragrances is insane!
I agree most are the hybrid these days.
Can't wait for tonight!
Trend is big knots.. personally I'm not into them.. still got nothing against them taking over.. it's just that I think it would make more sense if artisans would consider offering both (big & small 1s)
I agree, 24mm is my sweet spot. One of my favorites from PAA is the 22mm Astraeus.
@@Tobins_throwbacks interesting.. a favourite of mine too👍💈
Very unique scent. Would you wear this firework scent during the holidays such as winter time when you know your going to be around a bom fire?
Hey Frank, thanks! Absolutely, that would be perfect!
She's not perfect, but she's the closest humanity has ever produced.
Amen!🙏
Well said, America isnt perfect but shes closer than any other in human history
Your mum is 9 years older than mine, who was born 1954.
Mums are the BEST!
@@Tobins_throwbacks absolutely!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Nice vid as usual Tobin. Sounds like a very interesting “novelty” scent. Yea yea USA! Best regards, Glenn
Thanks Glenn! It's a ton of fun! Not sure if or when it will return. I didn't expect it this year.
Have a great weekend!
