a special sandalwood

Post by jpq5 »

My grandmother passed away last week which was difficult, but lived a life worth celebrating. Other than my memories of her which will last forever and are imprinted in my brain. She most often used a sandalwood scented ferfume. So now every time I lather up my tobs sandalwood, I think of her and adds to my already joy of shaving.

Sorry for your loss, "Grammy" or "Nana" always are the bedrock of a family and are missed when they pass.

I'm sorry for your loss. I have the same thing happen with Bayberry. My grandmother used to burn Bayberry scented candles at Christmas. Those are some of my fondest memories of my grandparents. The smell always takes me back.

I am sorry for you loss. I have very fond memories of the time I spent with my maternal grandfather. He used to apply a particular brand of face cream as an aftershave. I was able to get it online and have been using it since then. Just makes my shave that much more pleasurable.
