What’s new to you?

Had a nice mail call today. Got my blades I won in a pif from Aaron, thank you Aaron! Received a Stirling 26mm 2 band badger, & found a nice red tip at a flea market.



Right after washing, initial bloom:


After a Dawn & hot water soak:


Great haul!
 
So, I was able to run home quick and pick up my deliveries. No pics, yet. I will try to post some later.

The CFG Sherlock smells great. It shares some sort of base note with GTB, so you can definitely tell that they are both CFG products. (This is not a negative. I actually like them having a common element.) The January CFG 3017 is going to smell awesome.

My Stubble Buster came also. Unfortunately, there was a screw up. I ordered the Resolute shaving soap but received the Game shaving soap. I have contacted Groomatorium and will hopefully hear back either tonight or tomorrow during the day. The Game soap smells great, but is not what I wanted. The Absolutely soap and AS that I also ordered smells really, really good. If this is even close to what the Ballenclaugh Honey Tobacco smells like, I can see why everyone raves about it.
 
Nice!

Not sure about having 3 clear AS though lol...hopefully the labels are well attached!
 
By the way, I know NurseDave is...................well a nurse but I think he works at the Post Office at night. Whenever he sends soap samples from the swap library I get deliveries that don't have my stamps......well stamped as used. That's twice now

Well what you get?!?!?!
 
Honestly I am OVERWHELMED by the new soaps in tubs I haven't used let alone the overload of samples. Not used but sniffed everything and it smells smack dab in my wheelhouse !!

Well then I guess you need the Soap, Aftershave, and Cologne. I'll be waiting for the mailcall
