Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning! It must be more than a year since I last used this soap and splash and I still hold to my opinion that this is the closest analogue to original YSL Rive Gauche that I've found (YMMV of course). So this soap / splash / EdP combo will always have a spot in my shave den. Very slick and cushioning lather. Popped a fresh Gillette Platinum in the EJ 3ONE6 head which gave a fantastically smooth and comfortable shave. Literally no feedback from the alum block this morning. None! Finished with a spray of the matching EdP. Wonderful!

Hope you have a great day. :)

This is an absolutely awesome soap! The scent upon opening the lid was a wow! Together with the awesome brush, easily whipped up a creamily thick, and slick lather...
This beautiful antique razor returns from a re-honed & finished on a Nakayama. The edge...amazing buttery smoothness, very comfortable and efficient. Managed a workday rush 2.5passes for an enjoyable dfs+/ccs result. The aftershaves were terrific and matched well with the soap...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning! Went with Stirling;s "Eucalyptus Mint" for a nice, refreshing start to the day. Excellent lather! Three passes for a DFS++ result and I finished with the matching witch hazel and aloe splash. I did ad just a bit of vintage Avon "Everest" to it just to give it a little something more scent-wise. Finished with a spray of Rochas "Moustache" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
