Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to the venerable Proraso "Rinfrescante" (aka "Green") and their "Fougère" shave soap. Great scent and excellent lather built with the Rich Yuengel "Blue Meanie" HMW badger brush. Two passes with the Aristocrat and I finished with the matching balm and YSL "Rive Gauche" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Long ignored soap & balm set. Superb lather qualities and a long-lasting strong scent...
This razor was long-ignored too because the edge was not satisfactory...couldn't even tree-top. Finally, have the time to put it through the full diamond balsa progression and finish on the HBA. The resulting shave was very nice...buttery smooth and crisply keen...
