I've been watching for that soap, how would you describe the performance and the scent(is it still good). Thanks!

It has lost a lot of its scent original strong scent, but it still has a little of it to my aged nose, which has lost a good bit of its smelling ability. The performance is wonderful, almost as good as my best vintage tallow soaps.

Barrister & Mann Cologne Russe aftershave
Art of Shaving Sandalwood & Cypress

The brush is soft but not floppy, which was perfect for lathering the cream. The Proraso, while not having my favorite sandalwood scent, made great lather. And the razor and blade were excellent, close and smooth with wonderful audible feedback. The aftershave was not really necessary but added a nice zing, and the cologne was a very good finish.

National Garlic Lovers Day

Yet oddly..... there was no garlic in the shave!

 

[churchilllafemme]

No, I've never been tempted to try any garlic lather or aftershave. And this was also National Badger Day, but I couldn't find any comic images about badgers by my favorite cartoonists. Pogo had a badger character, but he was just sort of an evil politico.

great first shave with the Everyday razor, however I’m going to experiment with the sharper blades in my den to see if it changes the shave.

This is a soap I initially have no good impression upon...but now...Wow! The scent to me is now so good and so unique...and amazingly long lasting. Performance is very good too...creamy and slick.
The new free brush was excellent! Good hefty, solid handle and nice soft brush with good splay & backbone.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant night.

Not much to say about today's shave. Fantastic results from the Game Changer / Wizamet combo and the scent of the Diver Down soap and splash is wonderful!

First shave with the new Seaforth Spiced and was blown away by both the performance and scent. Sweeter than I had anticipated from a "spicy" scent profile but the citrus gave way to some nice cinnamon and vanilla and they all played extremely well together. Love the post shave toner as well, perfect for the colder weather settling into the area now that we're full into autumn.
