Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Saponificio Varesino and their excellent "Manna Di Sicilia" shave soap & ASL. Fantastic scent and lather created with the Saponificio Varesino 2.0 Manchurian Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '61 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with a splash of Quinn's witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave lotion, a light facial dusting of Clubman talc and a spray of Parfums de Nicolai "Patchouli Homme".

Hope you have a great day. :)
