I saw that one at The Shaving Shop Club and was very interested in it, but got about a year's worth of soaps to finish off first. Post a review on it when you get around to it.

Wow, some amazing Mail Calls the last few days! NurseDave, you got a double jackpot with the Stark and the Russian Tea. Mail Call today:


They are on clearance, and I just had to grab some before they become Unobtanium.
 
Nice Mail Call Eric!

I stocked up as much as I could when he 1st put them back on sale.
Really wished it had worked out for him.

New frag...Tom Ford Plum Japonais. 15ml bottle, smells great!

Good Stuff Josh. I just can't imagine how Plum cologne can smell good. I mean I like to eat plums but I never thought I would want to smell like one. I am going to have to look for a decant and see what its all about.
 
So, first impressions are that it is sweet, but not cloyingly so. It's primarily an oriental, however, so sweet and spice. Not sure what the evolutuon is going to smell like. I'll post an update soon on how it wears on me.

Nice looking razor Rob. Hope you get fantastic shaves from that.

Thanks, Chad! This razor head was supposed to be a BLEM, but I'm not sure I can see why. The shaves should be close, at least. This is a seriously efficient razor!

Nice Rob!

I don't think I've heard of those blades before.

Thanks, Craig! The blades came with the razor, which I thought was a nice bonus. They are made in India by Vidyut. I've never tried them before, so I am looking forward to trying them out!
 
I received my bottle of Pen's English Fern yesterday. Thanks for the enablement DocHoliday0831! This will probably be my last Wet shaving "purchase" for a very long time.

Anyway, I put it on today, and I have to say, it's much more subtle than I expected. It's about the scent I expected, just not as strong. But so far, longevity seems to be good. I think it's very well balanced, and is just about right. You aren't going to project this all the way across the room, but It's there when you need it for when your lady gets close. Makes me curious about their other scents. Maybe after I win the lotto.
