Great set. Thanks for influencing me to get Humphrey's Lilac. I had the Citrus but reading your posts talked me into getting the Lilac. It's really good also.

Razor NOS Henkotsu Kamisori
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Wintergreen + Stirling Iced Pineapple
Very nice lather from this soap. The scent, creaminess and slick qualities are just great!
Another enjoyable shave with this Kamisori. So easy, so smooth and very comfortable in 3passes for a dfs+ finish without any issues. Aftershaves were awesome.

Aftershaves Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic Witchhazel & Splash
A very nice scent from this soap. Distinct pineapples and bananas...quite sweet and stout too. The lather was great...creamy and slick!
A great shave with the razor paired with the blade. Somehow this blade makes a huge difference. I did put it through some palm stropping from the 1st use onwards. Today it was crisply sharp but very smooth and comfortable in 3passes was able to get a dolphin smooth finish....never before with this razor. The aftershaves were terrific too!
