Creed Green Irish Tweed~~Rubberset 400/3~~Feather AC/Super Professional
Wedding day shave 2021.
Daughter gave me this juice a while back and I was able to score the soap for the
ridiculously low price of $40. This triple-milled soap is one of the best in my den. I believe Creed
priced themselves right out of the shaving soap market, with retail prices upwards of $110.00.
Amazingly slick and protective lather.
New Feather Super Professional blade and I am shaved smooth.
Here's a breakdown of the juice.

Lovely photo, Maestro!
Beautiful picture of the newlyweds! Congrats all around and may they have a wonderful life toget!
Well if that photo doesn’t have “A Father’s Pride” written all over it, nothing does. It gives feelings of joy.
Wonderful photo! I hope to have one of those some day!

AoS Peppermint~~Simpson PL8~~Feather AC/Super Professional~~Frederic Malle The Night
Monday morning shave with zero pressure or agenda items!
Always simple to load and create terrific lather, are the creams from Art of Shaving.
AoS Peppermint~~Simpson PL8~~Feather AC/Super Professional~~Frederic Malle The Night
Monday morning shave with zero pressure or agenda items!
IMO, for around $25, you really get your money's worth.
The peppermint is refreshing and has just enough "punch" to invigorate without causing eye-watering.
Feather AC again and I created a few red spots on my neck, but with the air of Alum and Witch Hazel,
all is right with the world.
The Night by Dominique Ropion is my most treasured bottle of "stank"...
and if you aren't familiar with Oud, this one will take your breath away.
I cannot get enough of the juice.
BTW, thank you all so very much for the kind words about my daughter's wedding.

Fine L'Orange Noir~~Simpson Emperor 3~~Friodur 471~~Terre d'Hermès EdP
Today's shave features a soap, sadly discontinued, but nevertheless, performs far beyond its (then) price point.
The scent of the Fine soap is astoundingly close to the original EdT.
I have to stop here, because the typing lag is so severe, that I cannot even focus.
Have a great day.
