    Wanted a change for a day and didn't use Arko today. While not my favorite scent, the Stirling soap is winner.

    Enjoy your day.

    Great write up on the Simpson Cream. I have always been interested in their creams so I will be following along as you try each.

    Beautiful B&W photo Charlie. We have my family here to our home for Thanksgiving which should be around 14 people for lunch. I hope you and your family have a Blessed Thanksgiving.

    Great filter effect Jim. Cabernet Neroli was a great scent so this cream had to smell good.

    Congrats on solving the clicking mystery. At least you escaped without serious bloodshed.

    I know what it is now, and it is definitely different than Cabernet Neroli, but it is still similar to my nose. Seeing the results, I am not surprised that this was my favorite cream.

    I’m leaving on a five hundred mile drive this morning and my straights are packed. I brought out the razor that started it all three years ago and got a wonderful three pass BBS. I can still shave with a DE

    I have had 3 shaves with this combo since I last posted about it. Had two excellent face-lathered Stick shaves on Friday and Saturday, and for whatever reason decided to smush some on the bottom of a bowl this morning. Not quite as slick a lather as rubbed on the face. Was a bit tuggy, actually. No reason that I can think of. Still a decent shave and finished with both the P&G and Stirling for a spicy start to the day.
    Have a great day all!

    I believe Stirling makes an Espresso Bean splash. As well, Soapy Bathman out of Vancouver has a Cup of Joe scent. They do not make splashes. Balm only. You should be able to get both at Canadianbladeco, actually. I have never tried either.
