Today's shave was influenced by my experience yesterday evening when the sky was blue, purple and pink in one direction, yet had the golden glow of a setting sun in the other. This was set amongst backdrop of green, rolling hills which were accented by hints of yellowing leaves on the trees. It served a perfect end to summer and the visual impact and scents in today's shave reflect this, starting with the citrus scents of the pre-shave oil and moving progressively into more complex scents as it progressed. Another great shave to mark the Autmnal Equinox. T&H Pre-Shave Oil Route 66 Bourbon Jungle soap T&H Grafton AS Balm Shavemac TSR 2106 LE brush with D01 3-band fan Colonial Brass General

Catie's Bubbles Glacé Herbe Bulldog AS Balm and Pre-Shave Oil Vie Long Butterscotch Amphora Horse Hair Brush Supply Provision Razor Today's SEptember SOTD gave me the chance to try out some new products, namely Catie's Bubbles Glacé Herbe and Bulldog AS Balm and Pre-Shave oil. The Glacé Herbe is a really interesting soap. It starts off with a Vetiver scent (which is not my favourite scent - thankfully there's no earthy undertones present in this soap). The soap transforms when lathered as the menthol really comes through and thoroughly changes the scent profile. It turns it from an average soap into a great one. It's definitely a keeper for sure.
