Let me start by saying thank you very much for your amazing outdoor shave, I just love it ! ! I wish you and your whole family ( and Luna offcourse ! ) a very happy Christmas. I truly hope that you all keep safe and enjoy eachother.
Very good Tobin! I've had the soap, but not the splash, so it's great to hear the nuances of the fragrance. The bay rum definitely lightens the heaviness of the nog, but they are definitely well balanced. When I think of a gourmand scent, this definitely is one that exemplifies that definition. I don't consider all drinks or candies to be gourmand, just the ones that have this kind richness. I think the combination of some of these notes also brings out a buttery scent, but that might just be in the soap and not the splash. Nice Schick and it worked great. I hadn't thought much of them until I got one and that really changed my mind. Not much in the looks department, but they do shave really well. Great brush and I've been looking at their horse hair brush along with a couple other manufacturers. Zenith has their extra soft model that is right up my alley, but I'm trying to reign in my spending and be a little more responsible with my budget-lol!
I agree well said! I want the edp so bad! I also want a Zenith lol. I have so many shaving wants. My wife asked me this morning if there was anything on the PAA website that I wanted. My answer...ALWAYS lol Merry Christmas Ian!
I agree with Lee 100% it's a difficult fragrance to describe. Definitely not a strong vanilla presence. I'd say not one note stands out more than the others. Perfectly blended fragrance 👍👍 Hope this helps
Some really bad spots here and there, overall the damns did there job. Thankfully here in Oregon we are better equipped for heavy rain than most places. Snow...? Snow is a whole other beast lol
Got this one (soap, splash balm & EDP) over our hot summer Christmas. ..to use in our July winter. It's heading to 30+C in Melbourne today.. in March which isn't unusual here. This one smells really good. Brown sugar alright...in buckets. Can't wait to try it on a cold morning. Love your 'bird lid' mate. Looks like it keeps the noggin warm.
Hey Rod! This is easily one of my cooler weather favorites. It's in the low 70s° here today and it's a nice change from the cold rain. Have a great week!
Space Nog is outstanding. Douglas can make a fragrance that smells just like the name, think Yule Ham. But he always adds his personal touches that bring it far beyond the main theme. I feel that way about Keepsake Fruitcake as well as this one.
Although I definitely understand why people do, I really don't like warm lather, even on the coldest of mornings. It feels weird to me. My face has to be room temperature, or I will get irritation.
The warm lather in this shave didn't bring my face to room temperature 😅 It's so cold!!! (Was) I only use a warm Lather in the winter. I use cold water 90% of the time. On these outdoor winter shaves tho, that warm lather feels as good as (fill in the blank) on my..😊
Another great shave, thanks Tobin. Merry Christmas to you and yours! 🎄
Thank you!! Merry Christmas brother!
Nice shave and scent description. Those Schick Injectors are nice. Have a great week. Merry Christmas
Thanks, Mike, it's a tough one to vocalize. Do you have it? Merry Christmas brother!
@@Tobins_throwbacks I do not but I'm tempted to get this one and the coal one but I'm out of room and funds are tight
@@mikeperritte I feel ya brother! 1,000% the struggle is real
I'll have to keep this one in mind for next year. Another great shave and location

Thank you!! Means a lot to hear it! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!
Merry Christmas Tobin
Thank you! Merry Christmas to you too!
Fantastic scenery
Thanks Paul 👍
Stunning backdrop as always. Great shave Tobin. Not recording the post shave is proof to me that you are indeed human 😊 Merry Christmas!
😅😅 Merry Christmas! And thanks bro!
Epic thumbnail and pics! The fog looks killer on the river. Merry Christmas Tobin and Luna!
I don't know how anyone can not like Space Nog!
Space Nog is one of my favorites as well.
Great review as always. I love space nog that was my first shaving soap.
Absolutely wonderful scenery as we have become accustomed to. Merry Christmas to you and family, and all of our fellow schnerds.
Thanks, Lee! Merry Christmas my brother! I hope you guys have a great day too!
If ordered keepsake fruit cake and frost bite shave soaps from PAA so excited can't wait to try but I really enjoy your content
Great choices! I love both! Enjoy! And thanks Scott! Means a lot to hear it! Truly! Have a good one!
Happy holidays

An intrepid shaver, braving the cold temperatures. Nice seasonal shave against a beautiful backdrop. Give my love to Luna.
Thanks, Patrick! I'm glad the rains held off a day for us to get out and enjoy it!
I changed my mind. For my Christmas shave I will mix HC&C Alpine Forest with PAA Coconut Bay with lime, as I can then mix both splashes🎉🎉🎉
I need to grab Alpine Forest! I still haven't tried it!
@@Tobins_throwbacks oooooooohhhhhh, man! It is absolutely wonderful! Relaxing and invigorating simultaneously
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Thank you Robert! Same to you my friend!
Would you say there is a strong vanilla presence?
I wouldn't. It is such a wonderfully well blended and balanced scent.

Great...now I want Space Nog😅
I find myself wondering how much flooding was caused downstream from where you are, after the water level was so very high.

Well said! The PAA "Magic" 👍👍I LOVE IT! I can't believe I didn't record the part where I talked about Yule Ham lol. Merry Christmas!
I would absolutely, 💯 % use Space Nog tomorrow morning, if I had any of the samples left.
I think I have a sample of Stirling Christmas Eve still.
All that lovely, lovely moss❤❤❤❤
That hat!😊👍👍
