    jluc smelling pretty

    Thanks, Charlie!
    I have resisted buying a Simpson brush for awhile. The Omega Evo synthetic piqued my curiosity about higher end synthetics.

    Agreed. It's very important to appropriately stimulate the soap puck with the brush.

    If anyone knows anything about boiling please answer this for me. I've been looking at razor emporium about boiling for cleaning. My question is, is it safe to boil a Gillette super speed without damaging the paint, or nickel finish. They recommend adding a little bit of baking soda. IMG_20200113_180326.jpg

    Glad that you got hot water and that you're not in hot water with the IRS.

    Nice image and great looking brush Clint! Love the RA, mine is turning into a top favorite modern DE.

    Cool image of the gear Jim! PAA Gondolier and Stirling's Baker Street, haven't ever put those two side by side (have both currently), nor used either within a week of each other. They are definitely in the same house for fragrance. I get a bit more lime/lemon (a slight slight sour citrus) though out of my version of Baker Street, could be batch to batch differences. Gondolier to this nose has a more common daily cologne feel. Both are ones in rotation, and have great longevity.

    Love the Cooper and brush Jason. Neat perspective with the image too!
