Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Barrister and Mann and their excellent "Fougère Classique" shave soap & splash. Fantastic scent and super thick and slick lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 Super Badger Brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Executive and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave splash & Rogue Perfumery "Fougère L’Aube" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Barrister and Mann / Simpson / Gillette / Wizamet / Quinn's / Rogue Perfumery
