Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning! Returned to ETHOS Grooming Essentials and Frank's incredible "Mélange d'Agrumes" shave soap and splash. Fantastically bright and fresh citrus scent with incredible lather built with the Rich Man Shaving badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '59 Fatboy and I finished up with alum, the matching skin food splash, Pecksniff's "Grapefruit and Citron" talc & Dior "Eau Sauvage" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
