You can call me Douglas or you can call me Doug, just don't forget to call me for dinner.

 

Excellent picture and setup with a beautiful brush Clint.

 

Douglas - what is that shambala like. What does it smell like? Worth chasing down? I understand it was hard to find for awhile.

Excellent picture and line up Joseph.

 

Folsom & Co. isn't in business anymore. I'm not good at describing scents.

 

Thank you Doug.

 

Indeed I am. I'm six shaves in and have enjoyed everyone. I find that flipping the baseplate for a second pass makes for a completely irritation free event. I keep looking at my other razors but coming back to the Apollo.

TUESDAY'S SHAVE​

Perfumed by:
James Henry Creed


Razor - Antique Gillette 1907 Old-Type (fully restored and re-plated in gold by Razor Emporium)
Blade - *22nd Shave!
Shave Brush - CSB Synthetic
Shave Soap - Soap Commander - Honor
Brass Lather bowl by Anself
Aftershave - Thayers Witch Hazel "Unscented"
Deodorant - Talc Powder in Nu Steel dispenser
Atomizer by MYLL
Fragrance - Creed - Acier Aluminum (Vaulted)

***EDIT - Got a great shave this morning. The blade is still cutting my tough beard hair. I have not had any blade last this long and shave this comfortable. It's an anomaly. It only reinforces that this is the best blade for this razor and my skin/beard types. 1-pass against the grain and an extensive, targeted clean up pass. BBS. One of my best shaves IMO. Soap Commander got the job done giving just what was needed for a great shave in terms of slickness and protection and glide. No pre-shave products were needed.
