From the WSP Website:

Sandalwood - A much truer sandalwood fragrance. Instead of offering you a floral sandalwood, we kept true to the woody and sensual smell of sandalwood. While we couldn’t use 100% sandalwood essential oil, we did use a hint of it and backed it up with patchouli, cedar, & amyris.IMG_1629.jpeg

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Late post but a great shave to start the day. Returned to my vintage Shulton "Old Spice" soap, ASL, talc & EdC. Wonderful old school scent and incredible lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 1 Manchurian Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave lotion, talc & EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
