Happy Birthday!
Thank you @MarkB @Jaro1069 and @Dragonsbeard ! Still feeling nearly BBS after 12+ hours. Today was a good day spent mostly outside with family, which was phenomenal taking advantage of the nice weather on Long Island, and a great shave to boot.

Fantastic shave today!! Actually one of the BEST I've ever had. Went with "BEE-spoke", one of the new scents from Chris @CBLindsay / @CBLSoap.com and I gotta say, he killed it with this one! I've never used the fragrance that this is based on, but if it's as fantastic as the soap and tonic, I may have to get a bottle. Even the wife commented on it mentioning how good it smelled. Great scent strength and fantastic lather from the soap. Three passes and I finished with the matching after shave tonic. Didn't need to put on cologne. Still smelling it hours later.
Hope you have a great day.

That soap sounds wonderful! How's the scent?
It is simple but very intoxicating- neither of the notes overpower the other - I have to say the smokiness gives it that unique twist and added depth.
I’m bummed all the bath soaps in this scent are sold out!
My bad lol! It is a really bright scent - the citrus and mint take more a a dominant role - the lavender is just in the background. It is a lot like Ethos Fresco - simpler but in that familyOops! I meant the Lemon Lavender Mint. Durr!
