The Anticipation is finally over, the day had arrived, and a nice early morning shave before Mass. Not much can be further discussed on the CFG GTB other than it is wonderful in all aspects. It took me awhile to warm up to this scent as at 1st, I found it to be way too sweet, but it has evolved for me into a very nice shave experience. I still place Santa Paula in front of it, but still excellent,
Today was about the stunning piece of art by Sorrentino, in the TSC Legacy Brush. I may be a bit bias, but I think the Barzini is the most comfrotable holding brush ever made, and the addition of the inlay and choice of woods is Amazing. Eric is a true Artisan. the fan synthetic is just right and lathers like a beast. No matter how wet you hand is this brush just locks into you hand. The only danger with this brush, especially if you are using a straight, is the focus between the shave, and wanting to just gaze at this work of art, LOL.
The Jos. Elliot was the right choice of the day with all the wood accoutrements today, and performed brilliantly. 3-passes and some cleanup for DSBBS (G) today. A nice healthy splash of the GTB aftershave, some talc and a indecent amount of Vasilli's of the EdP, to bother some of the Parrish today, as we have had a recent influx of "Holier than Though" folks from another Parrish, that need a little braking in, LOL.
Set-up Today:
I said it numerous times before, and will say it one more time. Thanks to all the Legacy members that pitched in to give Chris, Chad and I, this wonderful gift, and to Eric for making it.
Hope you all have a blessed Sunday
