Last of the current SV samples today. Another good soap and lather producing fruity Italian citrus. I can say the SV line, even with its variations, does have a signature. Great shave today.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Wonderful shave this morning. Went back to Saponificio Varesino and their Tundra Artica shave soap and splash. Nice woody/citrus notes right off the top. Oud is in there but in more of a supporting role to my nose. Great lather! Three passes resulted in a DFS result. Finished with a spray of YSL L'Homme EdT. I may be putting the Feather up in the BST soon. It's a great razor, but a little too mild for my tastes.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Mmmmmm...what an awesome aromatic scent from this soap! The lather is good enough...but the highlight is the scent..!!
Another cheap but highly efficient razor! Paired with this blade... outstanding result! Auto-easy & very smooth in 3passes for a bbs finish. Matching aftershave was lasting & super!!
