Do you mean the Saturn V or the S-IV-B rocket stage? Both are pretty heavy.

Nice early morning Scottish shave today with the Blackbird. Overall as far as DE’s go this by far is the most aggressive, however the smoothest and most efficient DE in the stable. This is the 2nd Blackland that is on the top of the heap, with the Vector being the other one. Previously, the Gillette New Long comb had the DE slot, but no more
Arran is just good stuff laddie! Great lather, great fragrance, and fantastic fragrance
DSBBS again today and ready to face my Thursday!
Have a good day folks

Never tried it. How's the fragrance?
This one is patchouli and anise. The anise really softens the patchouli. , there is some salt and brine as well and a bit of smokiness and scotch notes
Now normally I would give you a hard time for posting something this confusing.....but I'm genuinely curious as to which scent note softens the other. So would you care to ellaborate?

La Toja Shave stick

La Toja aftershave
Penhaligon’s Elixir
Quick shave was necessary today (more on that in the “deets”). The Vector, and La Toja for the bill. Not the highest quality, but quick to apply, quick to lather, and always consistent. The aftershave is healing and has a nice Spanish “Seville” vibe. Keeping with the “Catholic” themeage, Elixir fit the bill. Good shave today
Deets:
Since today is my Friday, my Thursday (which is actually Friday). Are you staying with me?
Anyway we decided to have dinner and watch some TV. 1st off was our normal viewing of “Dark Journalist” on you tube. Being Disney fans, I remembered that the new live action Peter Pan was out. With Jude Law as Hook, and Jim Gaffigan as Smee, it was going to to good, and indeed it was. It followed (mostly) the original cartoon, with a bit of a different ending , but was well done and followed the “Old” Disney way and even reminded us of our favorite ride “Peter Pan” at Disneyland.
Well….. we were already on Disney+ so “Hey Look” let’s watch the live action “Jungle Book” again. Awesome! “Hey Look”. 101 Dalmatians (the original).
So some 6 hours later and 0230-0300 I finally laid my head on the pillow and what seemed to be an instant, 0515 was here. Zombified Barbering today! So quick shower and even quicker shave and a TON OF COFFEE. Just to see a client arrive an hour early Grrrrrr, going to be one of those days
I am too old for staying up late anymore Hahaha
Looking forward to the weekend and Zoom call
Hope everyone has a great Saturday!

Is that the "new" or the older La Toja stick?
The older, this one dates back
To the “old place”

I've heard the new one has a slightly different scent (YMMV*) but performance is just as good.
Ya, I am getting close to the end on this one, so I will get some more once this is gone, so 5 or so yrs from now…
Clean out the clutter by 3017ing your soaps and after shaves! You create space for new stuff.Ya, I am getting close to the end on this one, so I will get some more once this is gone, so 5 or so yrs from now…

WCS Soloist Shave Soap / Aftershave Splash

Replica Jazz Club EdT
Ealry Shave, late posting. This combo is wonderful, I keep coming back to it, based on performance, and how the fragrance evolves, Boozy, Dark, Smoky, but with a bit of headiness and a bit bright on the skin initially and then a wonderful woody boozy, cigar vibe on dry down. Soap is easy to later, and leaves a good face feel, Perfect for today's errand and perusing at the Pipe.Cigar Store.
3-passes and DSBBS with the Chevalier. Good, but I think a refresh on the Ark may be in order.
Another good shave day.
Hope everyone had a Great Day!
