A very nice scent from this soap. The lather is creamy, slick, and just wonderful!
Awesome shave with this cheap razor. The edge was very smooth and comfortable yet crisply sharp. Love the edge but not the scale...hahaha. 3.5passes for a satisfactory bbs/dfs/ccs finish without any issues. The aftershave smells great is truly chilling...wow...nice!!

Stetson aftershave and EdC
All of my gear played well together for an easy 1+ pass shave this morning. Daily one passers with a few touch-ups have become the norm lately.
Stetson was a recent purchase. It was inexpensive, and I was curious to see if smelled as good as I remembered from years ago. It's synthetic and one-dimensional when applied, but it dries down to be quite pleasant with powder, vanilla, tonka, and (eventually) barbershop notes. It rated an "OK" from my Bride. I'll use it up, but it won't be a re-buy. The next time I scrape up an extra $11, it'll go for ice cream instead.
I hope you all are having a relaxing Thanksgiving weekend.
