Another GREAT one!

Love the old money scent! Gonna be a hard choice between this and Bold Fortune! Will probably keep both on hand at all times.

Perfect as always

Bold Fortune

Works and smells great also great for shaving

I was kind hesitant to try this because all the conditioners I’ve tried didn’t seem to do anything so I stopped using them altogether. The utility beard softer does just that softness and hydrates my beard and hair. It’s all hands down the best shaving cream. I use a double edge straight blade and I get a smooth shave every time. It also smells so good that I will but it lightly on my body and neck instead of using cologne.

It actually conditions my beard. Legit.

This is a game changer
