Reflection keeps confusing me. Warm and fresh, tart and with a piercing note I can’t place (maybe the makrut leaf? I have no idea what that smells like). I struggle with finding good words for it. “Piercing” seems negative, but it’s piercing in a good way. The scent reminded me of something and today I finally figured out what it was: T&S Madagascar.
I fetched the splash and smelled them next to each other and got all excited that I found that same piercing note (less pleasant in Madagascar, which isn’t a favourite of mine)! Then I checked the scent notes for both and they have exactly zero overlap 🤬 (Now I hear u/mammothben’s mantra in the back of my head: “Scent notes aren’t real, they are sweet marketing lies”, but really I suspect my sus nose to be playing tricks.).
To continue the roller coaster of emotions that was this shave, when I applied the splash, there was zero feedback! I had met
the u/iamsms splash-feels-like-water-challenge in a three-pass shave with this kinda new-to-me razor on loan from u/wallygator without even really trying that hard! Huzzah! What an accomplishment! Then I remembered that T&S splashes are alcohol-free witch hazel toners just in time for the frag tingle to set in and remind me why I practically never use my Madagascar set.
Oh well. Interesting shave for sure, and it got me to reflect a bit more about lovely Reflection.

Yeah, not my finest moment😂
That’s a very summery background 😍
Those are our new kitchen towels that I bought and don’t let anyone use because I bought them for this 😅
