As it's my first SOTD and a Friday, I wanted to break out something special. The SV just never fails to impress me in any setup. Almost feels like I'm cheating when I use it because the slickness and hydration are so luxurious. The Whitewater splash is new to me but it's not bad. A more modern scent than what I typically go for but it pairs with the Cosmo in an interesting way.
