This is a wonderfully scented soap. The lather quality is creamy and very slick too...
The shave with the razor paired with this blade was another good session. Smooth and comfortable in 3passes without any issues for a dfs finish. The aftershave surprisingly matches well with the soap...similar.

Good morning Cadre. Hope you had a great weekend.

Fantastic shave this morning. Skipped yesterday due to the late night Saturday. Decided to sleep in. And so, that means today's shave was extra nice!. Went with "The Novelist" from A&E/The Club. Great scent and fantastic lather. Three passes and touch up for a wonderful DFS+ result. Finished with the matching splash and a spray of Viktor & Rolf "Spicebomb" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

A very nice soap with a delicious scent and a good lather quality...
Long ignored razor... realized how good it was again today. The heft of the razor itself is the primary factor for me...really wow! Easy, smooth & enjoyable 3passes for a bbs finish. The aftershaves were terrific for a hot humid day...
