    Tallow...
    I imagine, then, it is not an Italian Figaro...
    The last Italian croap to use it, I think it has been the original P 160!

    Thank you Borus!

    NP Alfredo.
    As @Primotenore said earlier, it is the P.160.
    Vitos has tallow and is my favourite croap but I haven't tried the P.160.
    If you would classify it as a croap.
    Kevin.

    Cold Water Rinse
    Morning TOST
    Jayaruh #340 Badger
    Superior Lather Catcher
    Gem Blue Star CS
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Morning TOST Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #340 badger brush. I did two passes with the Superior Lather Catcher razor with a Gem Blue Star CS blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thank you. It is indeed a jungle of sorts out here. Mostly wild bay at this level.

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Astra Green
    Ingram SC
    Prep ASB
    Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

    A quickie but a very goodie thanks to the new Astra Green in the old Super Speed. This Ingram cream I used is from Egypt and it’s one of the few creams that I plan to keep in my rotation. It’s got better lather than the version from the UK, it does have the same scent, it holds its consistency much better because it doesn’t break down and become watery like the UK version does and the menthol sensation is stronger. I had wonderful soothing from the Prep and a great menthol kick with that beautiful scent from the Alt Innsbruck. BBS in two easy, enjoyable passes and I’m ready for my golf game!

    Almost like this shaving deal comes naturally sometimes!
    Get you a featherweight and try it for yourself.

    Thanks for the info, Kevin.
    The soap in question is probably a triple-milled soap; it's rock-hard and as you just mentioned, was the original P. 160.

    Eufros Kasbah~~Simpson Emperor 3~~Dovo 91
    If I have learned anything in the last 5+ years it is not to "push the envelope".
    Yesterday's R41 shave left my cheeks pretty irritated. Didn't notice it until this morning's shower.
    Washing my face, my cheeks felt a bit sore.
    Therefore, today's shave consisted of a single, WTG pass. Done.

    Crappy results. Results that feel like I usually do after 8-10 hours.
    Oh well, my face will thank me tomorrow.
    Not much to report. Eufros Kasbah has a exotic scent, which reminds me of a bustling
    market, filled with camels and shoppers and hookahs and goats, roasting on an open spit.
    The Dovo got a few laps on the CrOx linen, but might be ready for a more thorough refreshening.

    The Emperor Super Badger is great, but I noticed a bit of scritch. Probably due to the irritation.
    Believe it or not, the alum was silent. The Thayer's was smooth and the Kasbah ASB was pleasant.

    As far as i remember (and this sets enormous limits!) it came in three formulas: hard, croap and cream. Or something different! :confused:

    I have the croap, but never seed the hard one.
    It should have come in almond taste!

    TOBS! Nice. I'm putting together a full TOBS Sandalwood set. I really like the scent. I will pretend I'm an English gentleman circa 1908. It just has that dignified vibe to it.
