Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Wonderful shave this morning! Got in the tub of "Rio de Janeiro" shave soap by Ariana & Evans and used it this morning. Firstly, I love the Kaizen 2e cream base. Whips up easily into a very thick, slick lather. The scent is great as well with tropical notes of coconut, fruits, florals atop a soft, woody base. Two passes (+touch-up) and I finished with some Clubman Reserve "Tequila Tease" AS and Creed "Virgin Island Water" EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

90th shave from my little puck of Geo. F Trumper Officers and Gentlemens soap. Getting hard to load, but once loaded the lather is still looking good and working well.

First use of Frank’s new Rosa product, it is a beautiful rose without the hints of Gardenia that always kill rose scents for me. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a Rose scent.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave today.. Revisited the "Havana" soap and balm from Moon Soaps. You'd think, on first glance, the scent would be a tropical-scented bomb. However, to my nose it's closer to a classic Barber Shop scent with notes of tobacco, vetiver, bergamot, musk and vanilla. Very nice! Nice lather as well built with the RazoRock "Chubby Extra" for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Aristocrat and I finished with the matching balm and Czech & Speake "Cuba" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
