Very nice lather qualities from the soap and a pleasant scent from the splash.
It is the time of the year for slants and I love shaving with this easy mild slant razor. Paired with the blade, enjoyed 3 smooth yet efficient passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave to end the workweek with. Went back to Proraso Red (Nourishing) cream and splash. Great scent with superb lather built with the Riva Brushes Aluminum Manchurian badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Rockwell 6S (plate 5) and I finished with the matching after shave splash & Creed "Tabarome" EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Love this soap & matching splash for the intoxicating scent & cooling sensation. The lather is always great...nicely whipped up by the excellent brush! The shave with this slant razor paired with the blade was very enjoyable...
