Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another great shave this morning! Returned to Truefitt & Hill and their "1805" shave cream and ASB. Excellent scent and lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Belfour" Sweet Spot Badger brush. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the '56 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with the matching ASB & Caron "Le 3e Homme de Caron" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Let's open the books on this shave

Preshave - Hot Shower
Bowl - Hendrix Classics & Co. Gun Metal Grey
Superfecta - Hoffmans Shave & Soap Company Tut
Brush - The Krait
Razors - face Merkur Shave Merkur Razors USA 34G Dome - Leaf Shave Leaf

From Hoffmans Website: This is a classic scent profile but with a twist! Features a very well done Egyptian Musk blended with a Black Oud.

My thoughts: Experience the allure of Tut, an elevated departure from your ordinary oudh soaps. Infused with the mystique of Egyptian Musk, it unveils a clandestine symphony of citrus and woody undertones. Delicately intertwined with subtle hints of rose, it's the fusion of leathery and smoky Black Oudh that binds this olfactory journey together.

In the realm of lather, Tut reigns supreme with its opulent cushion and creamy texture, ensuring a luxurious shaving experience for both face and dome. With the 34G razor as your conductor, embark on a two-pass journey to the illustrious destination of BBSTOWN.

While still acquainting myself with the art of dome shaving, Tut proved to be an exceptional companion for the Leaf, delivering a flawlessly smooth head shave. Its enduring fragrance transcends time, making it equally suitable for the boardroom or a night on the town, leaving a lasting impression wherever you go.

A definite should have as part of you arsenal
