    A nice relaxing Saturday morning deserves a wonderful relaxing shave and this lineup delivered. The Mike's Orange Cedarwood & Black Pepper smells fantastic. Many citrus scents are one note scents. However, the Cedarwood & Black Pepper round out the Orange while making the Orange more intense. This is only my second time using Mike's soaps and I don't think I have really dialed them in let. I find Mike's harder to load and thirster than most of my other soaps. I am already impressed with Mike's and I am sure that once I have it dialed in my impressions will only get better. The splash of F&C Capri was a great way to end a near perfect shave. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

    Razor: Above The Tie Bamboo SE1
    Blade: Feather Professional (1)
    Brush: 30 Day Crew LE with MS 2 Band
    Soap: Jeeves Of Husdon Street Turkish Bath
    A/S: Lucky Tiger
    Bowl: Pottersong Bowl


    I also had a very relaxing and enjoyable 3 pass shave this morning. Everything worked together. The SE1 razor provided a stress free close shave.

    It would appear from the survey(at this writing), that "Dream Razor" is running this thing backwards. I know, I know......many days ahead.

    Recovering from a sinus infection so I decided to take a safe light scented shave today pairing L'Ocitane Cade with Lucky Tiger. Decided to break out the Future clone set on 3 and some Voskhod blades. [​IMG]

    Thank you Doug. Looks like we would both be more comfortable with Mark in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico.

    Nice, lazy weekend shave today. 3 passes to a DFS. Didn’t chase the baby, and didn’t get it. First use with this soap and it worked up a nice lather. Not the slickest lather I’ve made, but felt nice on the face afterwards. The Bon Vivant seems to pair nicely with it.
    Have a great weekend, all!
