Hello Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Day 2 of 3 in the "Bruce Solidarity Shaves" and this morning I went with the vintage Crabtree & Evelyn "Soap For Men" shave soap which, in the intervening years (think I figured out that it dates back from the late 80's) has all but become unscented. There's still a small hint of something there (maybe it's just the base), but I can't tell what its or what it was even supposed to smell like. Great lather though, built with the RazoRock "Chubby Extra" brush for two passes with the Blackland "Era" (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Clean" skin food from their "Pure Collection". No fragrance. Bruce / @Graybeard57 hope you're on the mend, brother! Continuing to hold you in my thoughts.
Hope you have a great day.

Hello Cadre! Hope you're having a great weekend.
Day 3 of the "Bruce Solidarity Shaves" and for today I went with the vintage Colgate Cup Soap. Like the Crabtree & Evelyn soap yesterday, this soap has lost all of whatever scent it may have had. The lather though was incredible! More so than yesterday's. Two passes with the Tatara Masamune and I finished with some of the Duke Cannon "Ice Cold" ASB. Again, no fragrance today. Bruce / @Graybeard57 hope you're doing well, brother.
Hope you have a great day.
