Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great weekend.

Wonderful shave this morning! Another new soap day, this time Phoenix Shaving's "Old Salty". As the name implies, this is an oceanic scent and does a pretty good job at it. Salty sea spray notes, a lighter "driftwood" note and in the background, oakmoss and what seems like a very light floral note to my nose. All in all, it's a great summer scent. Excellent lather for three passes and I finished with the matching splash (+ skin food) and a spray of Polo "Deep Blue" EdP. 🌊🏖️

Hope you have a great day. :)

Lovely scented soap and matching aftershave. The lather is just impeccable from the excellent brush!
Missed using this Kamisori because the edge was somehow dulled by my misadventure trying to touch up with the LaLune but after my 3rd attempt...it became better and after putting it through the full pasted balsa progression...wow!! Popping hairs easily. 3passes for a ccs-sas finish. Not bad for a workday rush shave...
