Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. A good night's sleep really does help one's focus. 😉. New soap today. Went with Barrister and Mann's latest "The Full Measure of Man". Great lather and scent though I can't understand why it wasn't released last fall. This fragrance screams Autumn to me. Tobacco (old-school, loose-leaf, roll-your-own-cigarette type), wood notes along with spice and a vanilla / caramelized sugar sweetness. Very nice scent. One thing though, I don't understand what the label art has to do with it all. Oh well, it's a great soap nonetheless. However, it's likely going to disappear from rotation until next fall where the scent (to me) will fit better.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Long ignored soap. One of my fav soap. The nice orangey scent, easy to lather, and beautifully creamy and slick too.
This razor with the blade continues to provide a silky smooth and comfortable shave. Another glass-like BBS result after 3passes. I am amazed at the ease and the efficiency especially at areas (adam apple) where other DE razors just can't reach. The AS is new and matched perfectly with the soap. Very uplifting for the morning...another very good and enjoyable shave for the day!
