    That is quite the mix of scents. Great shave and results, Jeff!

    Awesome shave, Jim! I agree with you on the Wisdom soap. I think the lavender scent is easily overpowered by the peppermint. Great soap.

    Wonderful shave, story and pic, Jeff! It is a shame that wife #2 is allergic to scents.

    It’s always a balance, Joe, but her other attributes more than compensate!

    Saturday's Shave

    Gillette NEW LC
    Personna Lab Blue (2)
    Wild West Brushworks 'Renaissance'
    Geo. F. Trumper Spanish Leather Shaving Cream
    Aqua Velva Musk Aftershave

    Smooth, trouble-free shave today. The GFT and AV Musk don't match, but they do coordinate well according to my nose...
    Two slick passes with the Gillette NEW LC and I finished with a DFS+ today with no mishaps or irritation.

    Great photo and summary, Maestro! I’ve had the same issue with MDC. Never the case with MWF or Nancy Boy!

    Love your razor selection today, Andrew! I’ve never been a fan of any musk scent product, but glad it works for you! Today I reek of lime, bergamot, patchouli, and lavender! A bit confusing, but still wonderful to revel in!

    Right.....I sure miss the days when quarterbacks would just come up to the line with "Hut 1 Hut 2 HIKE".

    It is. I think Greg made it even softer by taking out the Bentonite Clay(My first of his soaps still has it, though).

    Thank you, Jeff! I remember smelling Jovan Musk back in the 80's and thought I would never wear anything musk. That sure changed...

    @JACarbone and you are part of the surge in straight razor popularity since 2012. Dovo reported less than 3000 sales that year. Apparently the movie, Skyfall, in 2012 is responsible for the surge in popularity. In 2013 they were doing their former annual sales monthly.
