Hazelet’s Apothecary Post Shave Tonic - Italian Special Edition
The FSC Camel Fat soap is easy to lather and slick as can be. Wonderful soap to use. The Italian Post Shave Tonic has a nice citrus scent, very light but soothing. Overall, an excellent shave!
Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Fantastic shave this morning. New soap day as well. Got in a tub of Sphinx "Citrange" soap which is an homage to Creed's "Millesime Imperial" frag. The website states the soap is "Kaizen base" which leads me to believe the soap is made for them by Ariana and Evans. Superbly slick and fragrant lather! Yogurt-like and very cushioning. Three passes and I finished with Alexandria Fragrances "Citron Del Mar" after shave splash and a spray of Sean John "Unforgivable", both dupes of M.I.
Hope you have a wonderful day.

After the first shave with Stirling Stainless, it has become my new favorite DE razor. The fit of the parts is perfect. But, he polished finish still shows way too many tool marks. The shave, however, was amazing. Lots of blade feel, so I rode the cap a lot in the beginning. The Stirling easily mowed down three days' growth. For such an efficient razor, the shave was pretty smooth, and left me with BBS after two and a half passes
