Thanks-might even buy another Gent's Gin when this one finishes.

 

very cool.i really like the whiskey woods,but haven't tried the others.is there a way to describe the gents gin,similar to?

 

I have Whiskey Woods tooo..like it a lot. I'll just quote from the Gent's Gin bottle:-The Gent's Gin scent combines lime and red cedar with fresh juniper and a Gin accord to finish each shave on a smooth, masculine note. I think the lime is the key feature.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

fair enough Paul.more curious,is it like lime sec,lime musk ..all good sir,thank you.

 

Two days growth, with this shave. Testing the Angled Cap, on @twhite 's creation, with a 2 pass shave. I will say, this Angled Cap feels much more aggressive, than the Rounded Cap. The Angled Cap requires more concentration, because it feels like it wants to bite you. The end result was a BBS shave. The Rounded Cap achieved the same results, but with more confidence. The aftershave went on, with stinging results. Not so, with the Rounded Head. I will give one more shave, with the Rounded Cap, before mailing it out, MONDAY(@Jayaruh ).

Razor- "?", by Tom(@twhite ). Angled Cap.
Brush- Cobalt Blue and Black, by @oscar11 . Synthetic knot.
Soap- Arko stick
Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicey. "One Good Turn" decanter.

I don't have either the sec or musk, but I would say it more closely resembles the sec(based on what I read on those two. It's too "cool" to be musk.)

 

thank you my friend ,such an intoxicating scent..love it.

 

thank you Paul.
