I really like this soap! Good cooling sensation, nice scent with a creamy and slick lather...
Today shave with the Shavette that started my interest in SRs. It's been more than 15months since my last use. Previous experiences with this Shavette were not very good due to inexperience but today...wow...very nice, very smooth, and comfortable 3passes without any issues for a dfs finish. Gotta use this with a Feather...The aftershave is really nice and the menthol hit was like a punch...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Superlative shave this morning and a great one on which to end this session of shaves with the Karve DE. Fantastically slick and fragrant lather from the PAA "Sun Down" with literally no feedback from the alum block. Three passes and I finished with a splash of the matching aftershave/cologne and a spray of Rochas "Moustache" EdT. Excellent!

Hope you have a great day. :)

A wonderful Pineapple Express shave on a sunny but cold morning. The Adamas head balanced beautifully on the UFO handle, which is only 3g lighter than the stock handle. And the Wizamet performed just as well in this razor as the P74 did.

Excellent soap qualities with a wonderful scent plus a creamy and very slick lather...
The shave with this razor paired with the blade was perfection. Easy, smooth, comfortable, and very efficient in 3++passes for a bbs finish without any issues. The aftershaves were terrific as well.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great end-of-the-workweek shave today! Went back to Fine, this time going with their "Platinum" scent in the old-style puck. Thick, yogurt-like lather yielded and DFS+ result after three passes and I finished with the matching ASB and a spray of Mont Blanc "Explorer" EdT.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)
