SOS: May 2018

2011 Semogue Caravela LE. This brush was produced as a joint effort between Barbear Clássico and Foro Afeitado which are 2 Iberian shave forums. It was offered to their members first and then Vintage Scent made the remaining available to non-members. Finest Badger/Boar mix. A very nice brush. I consider myself very fortunate to acquire this brush.

WSO was a great soap. GIT and Bill the Barber too light on the scent but performance hard to beat. I have signature and Bill the Barber, my brother in law took the GIT but I wouldn't allow him to take my GIT aftershave.

 

its his only soap - reminds me of Stirling but even slicker - its a tallow soap and its really good stuff, also the owner of paragon is a total gentleman

I have an unopened Zaro in reserve!

 

Forgot about Zaro. that was the first one I purchased and had zero scent to my nose and ended up trading it away for backup Signature. I let the guy know I could not pick up any scent but that I have severe sinus issues and he was ok with it, as the signature was too sweet for him. So we both made out on the trade.

 

"Signature" is my favorite. The "Zaro" has a faint scent, that might open up when I start using it. It's supposedly a fougère. Quality of the soaps is pretty much unparalleled.
Sold my back-up "Signature" a while back. That one I regret.

Although i do sport a goatee, It seems to be popular to look like a bum these days. Have had several girlfriends that prefer the 5 day stubble, or the David Beckham look. Just don't understand this trend.

 

To each his own. God Bless, Bill

 

Sounds like you found a winner!
