Hello Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Taking part in the "Bruce Solidarity Shave" this morning. Not completely scent free, but the MWF soap is very lightly scented and could almost pass (depending on your sensitivity), as unscented. Will continue the solidarity shaves through Saturday and will get things more scent-free for the next two. Bruce / @Graybeard57 you're in my thoughts, brother! Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Hope you have a great day.

Today’s strongly scented shave goes out to a Bruce guy I know.:
Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather ProGuard blade, Yaqi Moka synth brush, CBL Hombres soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Fine Platinum AS, and Dior Sauvage Elixir to finish!
Nuclear status! Proven to be 1000xs more effective than smelling salts at rousing people in recovery!
See you when you wake up buddy!

KA-POW!!! As they would say in the old, campy Batman TV show. This is a definite uptick in strength of scent from the Barbacco and the cooling mint hits you like Proraso Green on steroids! A great choice to last through the coming months on summer heat.
It seems like @GearNoir and I are the only ones that know that Bruce WANTS to use scented stuff ... except for Cella, but his nose is wonky whan it comes to Italian sweet almonds! He just doesn't use them because hefears loves his wife so much.

Even that….. is too much for Bruce!
The ladies disagree with you.
This thread is about Bruce…. The Ladies’ opinions are irrelevant. And, did you say ladies….. plural? How many women are you trying to impress?
All....the answer is all.
Name one other, than your wife, daughter, sister, siblings, mother, and anything human

Day 2 of 3 in the "Bruce Solidarity Shaves" and this morning I went with the vintage Crabtree & Evelyn "Soap For Men" shave soap which, in the intervening years (think I figured out that it dates back from the late 80's) has all but become unscented. There's still a small hint of something there (maybe it's just the base), but I can't tell what its or what it was even supposed to smell like. Great lather though, built with the RazoRock "Chubby Extra" brush for two passes with the Blackland "Era" (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Clean" skin food from their "Pure Collection". No fragrance. Bruce / @Graybeard57 hope you're on the mend, brother! Continuing to hold you in my thoughts.
