The soap scent just stands out! So aromatic...whereas the lather is just acceptable...
A slightly better shave with the razor and blade combination compared to yesterday. Reasonably smooth in 3passes for a slight efficiency edge. In this razor, both the feather & kai blade on the 4th use felt noticeably less efficient & comfortable...strange...
The matching aftershave balm was just awesome!!

In the last couple of months, I've really fallen in love with vintage Yardley. I had some great shaves with it in the past, but I've been using it with 50% of my shaves lately. The prices of these vintage bowl seem to have gone down a bit and I've actually acquired 5 bowls in the last month, so I won't be in danger of running out any time soon!!!

Nice shave sir!

I saw your Yardley haul. Those 5 bowls will net you a lot of great lathers. Enjoy.
