Theme justification - Mischief? It's in the name!
Relevant Post Shave or Frag - Lavanille extends and deepens the soap's lavender, with MdS quickly dominating before mixing with the warm spices and pine from Christmas Eve.
Daily challenge - There are many posts I enjoyed this month, but I'm too damn tired tonight to dig up my favorites. I've loved the legal classes with u/mpark6288, u/brokenjaw622 killed it all month with the videos (the watermelon shave was one of my favorites), and the love story of u/bmac92 and his bucket was a beautiful thing to behold.
$FOF - Trouble Maker is a shot of lavender and earth. Lavanille rhymes with its lavender, vanilla, Mousse de Saxe, and cedar. The splash takes the subtle TM and drags it down into the warm, spicy depths of MdS and woods.
Christmas Eve is a bit of a departure, but its fresh evergreen, warm spices, and hint of cranberry fit nicely in the end. A surprisingly Christmas-themed shave which surprised me, I expected TM to clash more than it did.
