    Never mind the Sunday shave this the “Night at the Roxbury” Saturday shave! Gillette Rocket HD 500, made in England and of a 1955-56 vintage. Lovely indeed. Loaded up with a Gillette Rubie Platinum.

    RazoRock Plague Doctor the chosen soap with the matching AS splash. Hasn’t been in rotation in a while and the dark floral is just a great scent.

    Lovely two pass BBS shave on a Saturday. Topped it off with some L’Eau D’Issey Pour Homme AS balm and the EDT! Oh yeah...ready for the club! Well, my kitchen anyway...enjoy your Saturday!
