- Spent a month with the Atelier Durdan Vestige. Great little razor, a nimble and perfectly aggressive GEM razor (sort of the Vector of GEM razors I dare say, or for you eggheads Vector:AC::Vestige:GEM). Also dedicated most of this month to the amazing soaps of Frank at Ethos. His splash/balm are typically in my post care daily regardless, but it was nice to use his soaps all month too

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning. Returned to Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements and their excellent "Astro Traveler" shave soap & splash. Great autumnal scent with notes of Bergamot, Grapefruit, Spiced Orange Zest, Black Pepper, Nutmeg, Saffron, Oakwood, Vetiver, and Tobacco. Fantastic lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Cu29" Sweet Spot badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Red Tip and I finished with the matching aftershave splash and vintage Pierre Cardin "Pierre Cardin Pour Monsieur" EdC.
Hope you have a great day.
