Those of us with too much time on our hands really want to know what's up with these separated at birth razors. Club and Cooper. Same handle, different plates, one Star DE like, one Mamba like. Information in Waits raises more questions than it answers.
Two parcels from South Africa! Parcel #1: 1x P&B Albion SS Parcel #2: 1x Prep ASB 1x Rondavel SS 1x Bundubeard African Potato SS 1x Simply Bee SS 1x Rondavel Bath Soap (for Madame) 1x Vintage Williams Stick 1x Preresato SS (never heard of this one!) Where am I going to put everything? lol
I'm jealous. Oh, right, you recently said you were getting ready to order that one. (And I probably had the same response as I did just now lol).
I don't recall being in Tobacco Country while they were blooming. I find Tabac soap to have a sweet floral scent that reminds me of Certs breath mints. That could be where the "Grandma's Purse" derision comes from. The scent doesn't linger after rinsing off the soap, but you can get the full line of AS, Cologne, deodorant if you like it. Here's a description. "The fragrance of this flower [Nicotiana affinis] is extremely delicate, yet rich and sweet, spicy-floral, somewhat reminiscent of carnation with a fresher note, almost fruity. The white/pink phlox and the “sweet William”, well known garden perennials, may even better describe the main odor type of the tobacco flower." That's from basenotes.net -> HERE.
I’ll let you know when I get the lot. I think I have one in one of the boxes I have but I’ll look to make sure it’s a SC it might be LC
Tabac is a bucket of German goodness. Love it. Used it Monday. You should like it I would think. The performance is outstanding too.
Je pilcher "bonanza" straight with box 3 de's 1 silver teck, 1 gold teck, and one gold star. Sent from my LGMS550 using Tapatalk
Well as much as I've tried to put off any brush purchases ..... but I've been eyeing this for over a month and had to take the plunge. Nothing like a NOS British Ever Ready...... what can I say, I like the unusual. Looks a lot like one of these; maybe a precursor ..... https://www.westcoastshaving.com/products/vulfix-2235s-super-badger-shaving-brush I'm thinking early to mid 1970's due to lack of UPC. Super stoked .........
First and last. Lol it lasts soooo long. From my experience you don’t need to load that long. 10-15 second load is sufficient.
