Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Went back to Martin de Candre and their "Nature" shave soap. Incredibly slick lather built with the Zenith B33 boar brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Aristocrat and I finished with D.R. Harris "Sandalwood" after shave splash.

Hope you have a great day. :)

At first I thought it said Dinks and Dave’s, which still makes sense. Dual income no kids and Dave’s 😂

What’s the scent on this one?
Drinks & Daves- A custom creation from the minds of…well, a couple of Daves of Drinks & Daves YouTube fame. Their olefacory vision was that of a scent that is evocative of a cozy lounge where fine cigars and spirits are enjoyed. Come on in and have a seat, there’s a leather chair with your name on it. Grab a cedar stick to light your fresh cigar and don’t forget the Scitch Whisky (Dave prefers Stotch to Bourbon but you’ll find both here) and PUFF-PUFF-PUFF away.

Notes: Leather, Cedar, Fresh Cigars, Charred Cedar & Cigar Smoke, Scotch Whisky

*LIMITED EDITION Scent available in Tonic and Soap.

That scent profile only makes too much sense! Nice!

My favorite soap & matching splash....smelling wonderful!
Managed to get this razor's edge to my satisfaction using the full diamond balsa progression and finished on the HBA resulting in a nice singing blade during the shave...
