Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Martin De Candre and their excellent "Rose" shave soap. Wonderful scent with superb lather created with the Paladin Brushes "PK-47" Select 2-Band Badger Brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '67 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Czech & Speake "No.88" aftershave lotion & EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

WestMan Alma
Timeless SS 0.68
Tall Boy Brush by Trout & Derby - Maggard 30mm SHD 2 Band Badger - 150 Year Old Silver Leaf Oak, Hickory, Walnut

From the WestMan website:

The fragrance opens with strong and cheerful notes of Red Roses and Passion Fruit, a melody that reflects the exuberance of youth and the desire for the extraordinary.

Musk, ever-present, acts like a gentle breath in this sparkling composition. It weaves a thread that connects the perfume. One can find hints of green from the Passion Flower.

Oud and Cedar provide support like silent companions. They show themselves at times. Their presence is a comforting reassurance that while life's journey may have its twists and turns, we are still rooted to the core of our being.

Remember that life is a journey to be savored.IMG_1622.jpeg
