    I continue to enjoy my month with the Timeless OC. Thus far I have found it to be a very smooth and efficient shaver. This month with Route 66 soaps has further confirmed just how well the soaps work for me. Across all the scents, Route 66 is easily to lather, slick and provides fantastic post shave feel.

    Razor: PAL Adjustable
    Brush: Artisan badger
    Lather: Route 66 Barbershop Hop
    Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Stirling Executive Man, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, touch-up

    Effortless lather this morning from a great badger brush and Barbershop Hop. This brush works the best with Route 66 out of all my brushes that I've tried. Easy face lathering with terrific glide, protection, etc. Excellent soap. Fairly easy shave with good results. The PAL Adjustable is still taking some time to get used to. I enjoyed the scent of Stirling Executive Man as part of post-shave treatment.

    Thanks for all the great shaves this month for all who have posted in here. Have a great day!

    For all who have posted here or have used Route 66 - what is your favorite scent? We know that the soap base is terrific but I'm curious as to your top scent or top two.

    I haven't tried or smelled them all yet, but Cavendish has been my favorite scent so far. Perfect Storm is a close second.

    You guys?

    A Perfect Gent was my fav, but Sweeney Todd is starting to make me rethink. Frozen Margarita is right up there as well.
    I've got two more on radar, but ive got to use(or gift) some current inventory.

    Well, perhaps it is premature for me to comment, but I just purchased my first-Cavendish. It's nice. For the winter, I need that "tobacco" scent.

    I left out Twisted Tweed.....it's a great scent too. I guess one or two scents is just too hard!

    That is a tough one for me, but I'll try.

    Cavendish
    Ghost Town
    Sweeny Todd
    Black Pearl
    A Perfect Gent
    Bay Lime Twist
    Cranberry Citrus
    High Mountain Mint
    Lavender Woods

    Perfect Storm
    Rum Runner

    I think my issue with 66 is that there's a lot of soap in there....who knows when I'll finish it and be ready for another(and I will try a different one later on).
