A really smooth and refreshing shave with this setup. Fist shave with the hand me down soap and its a great alternative to the almond scent of CELLA red.
Wishing you Good Health, Happy Shaves & A Pleasant Weekend!!!

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave today. Great lather as you'd always expect from the Stirling soap. Nice scent too. I don't have Creed Original Santal so I can't comment on its accuracy but it smells great. Finished with the Williams Aqua Velva. Less sweet, more powder than the American version. Light menthol as well. Finished with a spray of P&G Old Spice. Great way to round out the work week!

Hope you have a great day!

First time ever using a scuttle, and I am now a fan. Filled it wil some near boiling water from the kettle prior to my shower, and it kept my lather warm the whole shave. Much croap and cream usage shall follow. The Voskhod is better than the Ming Shi IMHO. BBS today.
