Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Went back to Phoenix Shaving and their 4711 homage, "11235". This may be heretical to some, but IMO the vegan CK-6 base provides a lather that's right up there with Saponificio Varesino and Martin De Candre in quality. All three can go toe-to-toe with the best tallow-based soaps out there. Two passes (+ touch-up) with the 60's "Psycho Tech" and I finished with Muelhens "4711" after shave splash and cologne.

Hope you have a great day. :)
