Blade GEM Stainless 7th Use
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Bergamot & Lavender + HA + Yaqi Malibu Splash-New 1st Use
The soap lather is very good, creamy, and slick but the scent is abit light for me...mildly pleasant...hmmm...like barbershop...
A good shave with the razor paired with the blade. Uneventful, smooth, and comfortable in 3passes for a bbs/dfs finish. The matching aftershave was much better with a stronger nicer scent and felt good...

Is that your new in house brand of aftershave? I know you said you're done ordering Soap and Aftershave, so Embargo sounds about right. LOL

Seriously though, I cannot judge LOL. I have enough straight razors to set everyone on the Cadre up twice over! How many soaps and aftershaves do you think you own at this point?

Between the two of us I think we could open up shop and compete with Maggards lol

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great weekend.

Good shave this morning. Love the Stirling Noir scent and everyone knows what a great lather the Stirling soaps produce. Three passes and I finished with some Ginger's Garden "Drakkar Noir" aftershave splash and a spray of Drakkar Noir EdT.

Hope you're having a great Monday. :)

The blocky razor was unusually nimble this morning, perhaps because of the fantastic lather. The shave was a wonderful warm note of Italy on a dark and rainy morning.
