    Wow...orange/menthol...sounds like fun and bet it smells great. Citrus and menthol...gotta be good.

    I had some shavings of Dirty Deeds soaps left over when I fitted them to fit in their tins. So I just melted down the orange menthol soap that I had made before and added the Dirty Deeds shavings. The orange menthol is still the main scent, but the Dirty Deeds soap added to it made it much more creamier, lathers real nice.

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 synthetic brush. I used the NOTSO comb with the Bunny, V3 Adjustable razor by @twhite and Personna blade and found the correct angle right away. Two passes and I was baby bottom smooth. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    It has been a while since I have used this razor, and it performed flawlessly. It was super smooth with no irritation at all.
