Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Revisited an oldie but a goodie with the TOBS "Sandalwood" collection. Great scent and superb lather built with the Semogue SOC "Mistura" brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Badlands Shaving Cocobolo DE and I finished with the matching splash and EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

A wonderfully aromatic, rich, creamy, and slick lather whip-up by the excellent brush. Love the splash...wish the scent could last. A very enjoyable shave with this razor, the edge was buttery smooth and crisply keen...

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Went back to RazoRock's "P.160" shave soap. Great scent with superb lather built with the Zenith Manchurian badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Rockwell 6S (plate 5) and I finished with Epsilon "Amber" after shave splash & vintage Pierre Cardin cologne.

Hope you have a great day. :)
