She's not been real happy as the boxes come rolling in. When she takes a wiff I get, That's nice or that's better or that's alright.............at least I haven't gotten, " That's okay.......................stand over there" yet @MilkCrate

Remembering Honey Bee Sue
Sunday December 15, 2019
Shave # 351 ( 404 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5
Blade: Wizamet (9)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Moka
Soap: Honey Bee Bamboo and Teakwood
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: Nivea 2 into 1 Splash
Fragrance: Penhaligon's Lothair
When @dangerousdon asked for ideas for theme week shaves I messaged him in Oct. about shave sticks and also remembering Honey Bee Sue on Dec 4th when she passed. It obviously slipped both our minds and popped into my head when I went to bed last night. So I decided to postpone the planned shave for this morning and do a shave in remembrance of Sue. Video uploading and will be in the Members Videos Section. Have a great day Cadre !!!

Shave # 352 ( 405 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Schick Proline (11)
Brush: Shavemac 2 Band Silvertip
Soap: WK King of Bourbon
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: Small Batch Shave Tonic
Fragrance: Prada Luna Rossa Black
Shave 11..............................yep 11 on the Proline and nice smooth shave. With all the talk about longevity I thought at least till I get bored, I'd see how long this SE blade and the Wizamet DE blade in the Rockwell will go. I will say during the shave I was thinking with all the razors I have I tend to reach for the Vector and 6s 99% of the time. Maybe I should thin the den down to these 2 or close.............................opened the cabinet door to look at the other razors in there...........................maybe some day I'll thin them but the door closed thinking, I'll miss the variety and choices if I do that. Even if I don't grab others often, I do enjoy a spin with them on occasion so for now at least, they're safe...........
On to the Fragrance of the day. Prada Luna Rossa Black. Here's what the sellers say,
Yep, I get this nice definitely warm and slightly sweet without being overdone scent well blended. Here's 1 of many typical reviews,
WOWZA! I’m writing this review from a woman’s perspective. My husband bought a 10 sample fragrance bag from Sephora, hoping to find a new good cologne. (All scents we loved btw) but when we got to this one...we were both blown away. Hands down THE BEST cologne I have ever smelled! One squirt of this and I want to jump his bones lol, not joking! It’s unlike any other scent I’ve smelled! Do yourself a favor men, run and buy this! Ladies, buy this for your man as a gift and you won’t regret it! GREAT JOB PRADA, you hit it out of the park with this one!
Bottom line is how do you argue with that, I'm buying this one for sure. Today is high of 44* and POURING rain but I have some work under cover of awnings (getting to them without getting soaked is a challenge) and some floors to buff this evening so it's off to the boat to head to work shortly.
Have a great day Cadre !!!

Was hoping the PG13 fragrance review would pacify youToday's pic leaves a lot to the imagination!

I actually was going to buy this when I saw it's reasonable price point BEFORE I saw that review as it is a great scent for meWell Dave there is a reason is called a Collection of Razors! if you only had 2, especially 2 that are modern, can you really call it a collection?
and man that review... i mean it's just so hard to argue with high quality pros like that!
But the review didn't hurt my decision
It's Rainy here today also Dave. But it's going to be in the 80s.
The Black Prada definitely sounds like a winner!
