However, it was not as easy as it sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdmittedly, I created more than a few variations on this blend before I nailed it. The first few versions were too Bay heavy or too Rum heavy. The Nog was present, but just not leading the way - \u003cem\u003eThat had to change\u003c\/em\u003e. What I finally ended up with was truly something magical, smooth and pretty damn nostalgic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVanilla Hydrosol\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI know many of you have heard me talk about hydrosol in the past and how it is a key part of what sets our aftershaves apart from the rest,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpace Nog is no different in its genetic make up.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany will use purified water in their splashes which is fine, but it adds nothing. Unless that is what you are going for, but it's not how I roll. I am all about subtle ghost notes or grace notes; elements you may not immediately notice but would notice if they were not there...like the lack of an arm rest in the rental car you just picked up, not a big deal, but it could be better. Hydrosols add this other layer and bolster up the depth of the fragrance, and essentially add to the overall experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the case of Space Nog, I chose to distill my my own vanilla hydrosol from Madagascar Vanilla Beans, the best in the world! I don't believe anyone else is doing this especially for what Madagascar Vanilla Bean currently trades at, second to saffron...\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ebut it's worth it!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlong with some ratio balancing it was the inclusion of my Vanilla Hydrosol that really took the edge off the top and smoothed out the final variation of this juice. Nothing but the best for my customers...plus I need to wear the stuff too and won't settle for half ass.
