A little change to the lineup for the next month or so. Paused the Shulton 3017 and am hitting up the Williams Challenge. I must say vintage Williams is awesome. I'll keep the balm and AS until it is done.

Good morning Cadre. Happy Groundhog Day! That is, unless you hate winter like I do.... 🤬

Another fantastic shave this morning. Great lather from the "Mogno" soap. The quality of lather ranks right up there with the best tallow soaps IMO. Three passes provided a DFS+ result and I finished with a splash of Epsilon "Mediterranean Blue" after shave and a spray of Paco Rabanne Pour Homme. Excellent!

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Excellent soap! Beautifully scented with a creamy and very slick lather...
Another good SR shave session with this nice razor with fresh pasted balsa edge. Smooth and comfortable in 3+passes for a mixed ccs/dfs finish. The aftershave was excellent as well and it matches the soap scent.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning.Went back to First Line Shave's "Illustrious Oud". Inspired by "Oud for Greatness" from Initio Parfums, it's a dark, sweet, spicy scent that is quite wonderful. Not sure how close it is to the original. May have to order a sample to find out. Three passes and I finished with the matching aftershave splash and EdP. Wonderful!

Hope you have a great day. :)
