Clown Fruit Review Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements Haunted House Shave

[@alexbotello9612]

🐐 - that clown in the background is creepy AF I like it! I remember you said you'd do a shave in the house from the last outdoor shave so that's pretty cool set up and spooky shave! I like the glass sound effects too. 👻👻👻

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

😊 thanks Alex!! I'll take your comment as "mission accomplished". Creepy AF was the goal lol. I was tempted to go further into the house but didn't want to " overstep " the bounds. Happy Halloween brother!

Hallalujah 🙏 I enjoy each and every shave, can't grow a stubble quick enough for the next one, fact 😂 Great shave and location Tobin, regards to Luna and Athena 😊

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

I know that feeling all too well! 😊 I'm always looking forward to the next shave and sometimes I wish I could shave twice in a day. Thanks! Will do! Snuggled up with Athena right now!🙏

[@Edloveslife]

Thanks man for the review. I’ve been waiting For this one to return? I have to admit I’ve hated shaving most of my life. But since I started wet shaving and collecting razors, brushes and soaps I literally can’t wait to start my day off with an amazing shave. Thanks Tobin

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@Edloveslife I know the feeling Ed. Each day it's the same for me, I hate missing a shave. Clown Fruit is a magical type of fragrance, not just the way it smells but the mystic that surrounds it each year as guys count down the days for its return. Have a great day! And thank you!

[@mikeperritte]

Nice shave and spooky location. I have the sample and need to try this one. Have a great week

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Mike! Have you had a chance to try the sample? Curious to hear your thoughts on it. So glad I have tomorrow off. Hope you're having a good one!

[@jeffdenker145]

What an awesome location for the shave. Great job, Tobin! By the way, love the shirt!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thank you kindly! My mom got me the shirt a few years back, shes the best! Have a good one Jeff!

[@Lee-deadphishaves]

I love the opening you did for this one! I’m gonna have to get a sample of the clown fruit….seems to be well liked, and sounds intriguing.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thank you sir, sorry for the late reply. I definitely recommend a sample, if you don't pick one up the season remind me to mail you a sample next time I send you something. It's definitely one that is worth trying. Hope you and your family are doing well! 😊

[@ChristopherDanielJones]

I feel like the 🐐 is flexing 💪 in this one! I'm only a couple of minutes into this

This is Halloween! Great review Tobin!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Allan!

[@spooky_da_scary]

this was another fall scent that i thought was ok, but didn’t “blow” me away when i got the sample last year. when i saw it was coming back out i decided to try the splash sample on my skin and man, IMMEDIATELY put it in my cart. such a spicy sweet unique scent. great shave and review!!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

It's definitely one of those fragrances that will grow on you. I know it has for me and others. Thanks man Hope you have a great week

[@NathanWayman-uy8nu]

Spooky shave! I have never tried clown fruit.... but I do like root beer, anise, and juicy fruit! I also really like me a good flash light😂 Take care Tobin! And Happy Halloween 🎃

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Morning Nathan definitely grab a sample sometime. Have a great week brother! Happy Halloween!🎃

[@johnjaeger9148]

Creepy spot - how fitting!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks John! Hope you're having a great week brother!

[@rodsloane706]

23:02 Great review Tobin. Love the detail. Had this one for a year now with EDP coming in the next few days. Like this one... alot. It's a warmish spring here & I found great length, just from the splash, on a warm day when those things tend NOT to last so long. No idea whatsoever what fear absolute is. Hope you're wearing your thick Vibram soles on that floor. Have a great week.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Hey Rod! Thank you! I'd love to pick up the EDP one day. Our Autumn has been mild so far, however that's about to change. The rains are coming. And yes sir, you betcha. I'm wearing some super work boots😊 I generally wear some impenetrable boots on my hikes. Have a good one brother!

[@T-R.e.x]

What a shirt !! 😮

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thank you! My mom bought it for me! She's the best!

[@T-R.e.x]

@@Tobins_throwbacks indeed she is !! Great taste 😉

Another killer review!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Brett!

[@ChristopherDanielJones]

Dude! Too cool! 🎃💀🎃

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks!!

[@Edloveslife]

I received my clown fruit and love it. Definitely bottle caps😂 Your reviews are the best but I have to say one of the things I truly enjoy are the things you bring up in every video that are nostalgic to me? I think it’s definitely our generation and probably a little bit of the Oregonian in us. Thanks Tobin

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@Edloveslife thanks Ed!! Must of been the Bottle Caps for nostalgia? I actually had a box not too long ago 😁 lol Hope you're having a great week brother!

[@Lane-m8o]

Clown Fruit is one of my favorites from PAA

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

🤡🙏

[@lawrence1md]

Sweet intro! Thanks for the shoutout. Awesome shave as always.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Matthew!

[@stagsandstaples1127]

Legendary intro!!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thank you!

[@Addison_Road]

Great video

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thank you! Hope you're doing well brother!

[@samhillanbrand6291]

Creepy shave! Bink in the background with the dark car port behind him makes it creepy for me😂 The broken glass...windows from the garage, or beer bottles from teens?😂

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Sam! So I think the glass is from a window but where the window came from I'm not sure. It was spread around the floor pretty evenly I took a 4x6 that was laying around and used it to drag the glass closer to me into a small piles. 😅

[@samhillanbrand6291]

@Tobins_throwbacks 🤣 For the effect!

[@americanvintagesoapcompany]

Spooky haha

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

😊 thanks Robert!

[@RobertsReviews1974]

Very nice creepy shave😂!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Robert!

[@leehaseley2164]

My plans to do something for Halloween with the kids at school for the first time ever have been scuppered. The flood damage was so severe that the kids will be back two weeks later than originally planned.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Dang! Maybe next year. Halloween is so much fun!

[@williammurphy1756]

Nice review Tobin. I will have to dig out my sample from last year and visit it again and find out why I did not buy it. 👍🎃

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@williammurphy1756 thanks William after you check out your sample let me know your thoughts on it. Hope you're having a good one

[@lastshadow9351]

Very good Tobin! Great opening! Well, like I told Matthew, the wormwood is where I think he's getting the Birch/Sassafras scent from. The green fairy! I also mentioned my back and forth with Doug and how I loved Son of Clownfruit and that I didn't like Clownfruit which gave me a headache. Doug changed suppliers of wormwood after the Son of Clownfruit and even though he said they were the same, they don't smell the same to me, but I'm a weirdo. Gotta have a machete in the vehicle, you never know when the zombie apocalypse will happen! Take care bro!

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Ian! The machetes come in handy on our hikes and outdoor adventures. 🙏

[@ericstanford7670]

I ordered the green witch soap, aftershave splash and the balm after I saw your green witch review. I also ordered the bulmica safety razor off of Amazon thanks to your review. Both should be here soon.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@ericstanford7670 Awesome! Curious to hear what you think of the Bulmica! For the price I'm still impressed with it. Green Witch is UNBELIEVABLE. Have a good one Eric!

[@ericstanford7670]

@ I just got done shaving with the bulmica and I really enjoyed it. I found it to be efficient and smooth. I even liked the blades that it comes with. Ive only been wet shaving for 2 months after having a full beard for many years so my only other razor that I’ve used is the king c Gillette and the blades it comes with. It’s a nice mild shaver but honestly I think I like the bulmica better because it’s more efficient. Plus you can’t beat the price. I paid less than $10 for it. I can’t wait until the green witch comes in. Watching your video with the way you described it has me very excited. Now if I can just find the right brush I’ll be even happier lol. Thank you for your reviews and tips, they have helped me out so much. I apologize for writing you a book lol I just am so excited about this new world of wet shaving. Take care buddy and please keep doing what you’re doing because you’re very helpful to others.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@ericstanford7670 that's awesome Eric! Don't apologize, I enjoyed reading it! The King C is definitely milder. Have you tried any brushes from PAA? I've reviewed a few, The Astraeus is like $23 and one of my favorites!

[@stevem1563]

Love the sound of the glass crackling. Clown Fruit & Grove were my first PAA purchase. Don’t forget though, the first iteration of Clown Fruit was Clown Fruit and was a collaboration. Local Gents made the soap and PAA made the splash. Personally I think the original splash had a heavier oak scent and it was a darker brownish color. Once I asked Doug about the color and scent and he said the scent did not change and the color difference was probably from age. But I can tell you the color did not change over time. Nevertheless, Clown Fruit really grew on me. Happy Halloween brother.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@stevem1563 thanks Steve! I had forgotten about the LG collabs! I don't see how it would change in color either? Have a great weekend!

[@Leenunes007]

Great location! That definitely looks like the kind of place where you'd find a bunch of bodies. I never got the root beer or Juicy Fruit thing with Clown Fruit. I get more of an herbal liqueur cocktail. I can't remember what the cocktail was, but I think it had Chartreuse and gin in it.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

@@Leenunes007 Thanks Lee! Good morning! I like your description! That's the kind of vibe I was going for. A place that a guy like Wayne Gacy would hang out 😵☠️🤡 Your description is definitely more in line with the notes I get from CF. Have a good one brother!

[@leehaseley2164]

Elderflower is definitely an acquired taste, as it were. From personal experience, it is great in wine. In fact, sparkling elderflower wine is very refreshing. But i can well imagine that the smell could be overpowering, as this one does not play well with others.

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Wine 🤮 lol Yeah, it's a note that I think keeps me from loving CF as a whole

[@leehaseley2164]

Going whole Halloween hog on this one, Squirrel Lord

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

😊 thanks Lee! I really wanted to do CF justice!

[@leehaseley2164]

What on earth is it that you keep on treading on, Tobin?

[@leehaseley2164]

Never mind. You already answered. 😅😅😅

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

There was broken glass on the floor so I used a piece of wood (a plank) and scooped it up so there was a small pile beneath my feet. 😅

[@leehaseley2164]

@Tobins_throwbacks as a fellow dad, I was in real dad mode, thinking that it was an accident just waiting to happen.

[@AdamBarbara]

I can't decide if it sounds like you're walking on bones or glass😅

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

😅😅😅

[@Lane-m8o]

Broken glass?

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Lol yep 😊🥴

[@theluxuryshavinghobbyist]

Hey Tobin, Glad you were not barefoot during that shave! I pick up root beer in Clown Fruit as well, but in any event, truly unique! Love you long time, Glenn 😊

[@Tobins_throwbacks]

Thanks Glenn! And thanks to Matthew now I can't unsmell it 😂 Good luck tomorrow, we're praying for a quick recovery!

[@D.Barker-k2g]
