Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Wonderful shave this morning! Went back to one of Frank's / @Dragonsbeard newest, "Blood Orange" from his Italia Collection. Wonderful lather and aroma!! Three passes and I finished with the matching skin food splash and a spray of Acqua Di Gio.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Nice enough soap with a light pleasant scent. The lather is really slick too...
The shave with this razor paired with the well-used blade was amazingly good. Unbelievably, the blade is still crisply keen, smooth, and comfortable for all 3passes without any issues resulting in a dfs++ finish. The aftershave kinda matches the soap & smells wonderfully mechanical...hahaha!
