    That does sound like a great scent. I thought the coconut might overpower everything.

    I've had some fantastic shaves over the last week, this Jagen David E01 pairs beautifully with derby extra blades as well as arko which i have gone back to after using Godrej lime for a month or so.

    It still blows my mind how long arko lasts, this stick has lasted over a year now with an average of two uses a week, and even though i have tons of higher end soaps, i still find myself reaching for the arko more than any other soap.

    Its combination of fantastic lather and world class slickness make it absolutely unbeatable performance wise regardless of the scent which i have learned to love.

    Shave 1:
    Razor: Jagen David E01
    Blade: Derby extra (4)
    Brush: Omega 49
    Soap: Arko shave stick
    Aftershave: brut by Fabergé.

    Shave 2:
    Razor: Jagen David E01
    Blade: Derby extra (5)
    Brush: Omega 49
    Soap: Arko shave stick
    Aftershave: arko ice mint

    Shave 3:
    Razor: Jagen David E01
    Blade: Derby extra (6)
    Brush: Omega 49
    Soap: Arko shave stick
    Aftershave: Ego Bahama mist[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Working from home this morning before a client appoint this afternoon. I really like using the Paladin brush face lathering. The handle is so ergonomic and the knot has soft tips with just enough scrub. Three passes and touch ups ended in another drama free BBS shave. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    Here's how that went down: I made a funny joke in response to something funny HE wrote-then he said he thought he was the funnyman in here.

    You forgot to put the lime in the coconut and shake it all up. Outstanding shave and pic Jim!

    Thanks Joseph. I did'nt think that I would like this razor, but I cleaned it up and after learning how to shave with it, it really does an awesome job. Yes, Myles totally floored me with the vintage OS.
