Aug. 1, 2022 - Austere August Sonder
Being fairly new to this, and admittedly having jumped head first down the rabbit hole. I’m really glad to start Austere August. I have been rotating soaps, brushes, and blades since I started using them and, while I truly enjoy the variety, I’m not sure I’ve really got any one specific piece in my setup dialed in. So with that in mind I got myself some HoM Sonder.
I have used HoM soap before, but I trusted other uses on this scent and started a simpler (easier) path to better shaves. I must say I am quite happy with the decision to pick up Sonder. To me, the scent is a fairly delicate, clean citrus. It strikes a nice balance that is not overly powerful, yet not so subdued that you wonder if you shaved at all. The most pleasant surprise for me came in the aftershave. I blindly bought the accompanying splash and had no idea it was mentholated (synthetic), you can imagine my surprise, but it really fit the fragrance well. I’m quite sure this will be an enjoyable month.
