Hygglig Mammoth Monday

  • Brush: Chisel and Hound Intrepid with 26 mm Zenith boar knot at 53 mm loft
  • Razor: Wade & Butcher The Celebrated Hollow Ground (5/8", new horn scales)
  • Lather: House of Mammoth Hygge
  • Aftershave: Noble Otter Barrbarr
  • Fragrance: Declaration Grooming Bangarang

Trying to take Hygge into a playful direction by pairing (tripleting?) it up with Barrbarr and Bangarang, and it kinda works. I'm enjoying the Wade & Butcher in its pretty new scales.

Hey I also used Hygge today! Hygge is the only Mammoth I own, and while I do like the scent but I wouldn't say I love it. I do love the Mammoth base though and plan to buy more soon. I just need to kill a tub first as I have limited space in my bathroom.

I'm the same. I like Hygge and I enjoy using it, but it's not a scent that wowed me.

My other HoM scents are Mindigo, Almond Leather, and Shire. Mindigo is one of those scents that I enjoy, but every once in a while it just clicks and I love it. But not every time. AL and Shire are among my absolute favourites.

Shire sounds like one that I would love. That will probably be the next HoM that I buy.
