Rooney 3/2 Faux Horn Finest (24/54)
Martin de Candre shaving soap + Coate's Lavender shaving cream
Haircut & Shave P075-SB Mixed Metal Black/H&S 17-4
Wilkinson Sword 'New' (18)
Armani Acqua di Giò Profumo aftershave

The Coate's cream moderates the soap's fragrance nicely, with great lather. I'm not certain, but the blade may have been dragging very slightly; it might just be the razor's character. Altogether a very good floral shave on a temperate morning.

Excellent quality lather from the soap. Intoxicating sweet scent, very creamy and very slick...
Shave with razor paired with the well-used blade is again silky smooth and comfortable for 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs finish. Nice aftershaves.
