Hello Cadre! Hope you had a great weekend.

Great shave this morning. Fantastic scent and lather from the "Sun Down" soap. Two passes + touch-up with the Psycho Tech and I finished with a splash of the matching after shave and a spray of Penhaligon's "Sartorial" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Used a hold-over from Christmas because I like the scent and performance so much. As you'd expect, peppermint takes center stage here but it's not a single note scent. It's called a North Pole Barbershop scent due to the notes of talc, rose, oakmoss, Haitian vetiver and vanilla. The oakmoss to very prominent to my nose (especially in the splash). Two passes with the Black Beauty and I finished with the matching splash and a spray of Chanel Platinum Égoïste EdT. Excellent!

Hope you have a great day. :)

The menthol of the soap's lather is always kind of a shock.
