Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

INCREDIBLE shave this morning! Smooth, close & irritation free. I had to double check to make sure I had a blade in my razor! Love the scent and performance of the DG "Yuzu / Rose / Patchouli" soap. Lathers like a monster! Three passes of absolute shaving bliss yielded a wonderful BBS result. No feedback at all from the alum block. Finished with the matching splash (with some added H.A.S.) and a spray of Nicolai "Patchouli Homme". I applied some Rose essential oil (just a small drop) on my chest carry on the rose / patchouli theme.

Hope you have a great day. :)

After 14 years of this, after $$thousands$$, and after all the wonderful shaving experiences, perfect shaves, outstanding scents, textures, and 'hairsplitting' differences between everything.
This shave is in my top 3.
a Van Der Hagen puck
a $10 boar
a 60 cent blade
a $3 splash
and whatever razor that has efficiencies that match your mug
Absolutely stupendous shave with a post shave that lasts into tomorrow.
WTF
lol

Razor Yaqi AC Aluminum
Blade Feather ProGuard 5th
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + Bvlgari AS Balm & Bvlgari EDT
The soap lather quality and performance are outstanding. Creamily thick and slick with a pleasant scent. Unsure if the scent is cherry but almost almond-like...
Shave with the AC razor paired with the blade was still silky smooth, very comfortable, and nicely efficient after 3passes. Effortless bbs results without any issues. Really enjoying this easy smooth and efficient type of shaving...
