Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning! New soap / splash day with the arrival of the Daniele Maullu "Legacy" soap and splash set from Ariana & Evans. Great scent with incredible lather built with the Paladin 2-band select badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Super Speed and I finished up with alum, Quinn's Pink Grapefruit and Orange Rind witch hazel, the matching aftershave lotion & Versace "Dylan Blue" EdT which was a nice, complementary frag for the splash.

Hope you have a great day. :)
