    Mix'n'Match Milksteak:

    Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts B9A 28mm
    Razor: Gillette English Aristocrat Jr.
    Blade: Gillette 7'clock (5)
    Lather: Declaration Grooming Dayman
    Post Shave: Declaration Grooming Trismegistus
    Frag: Zoologist Panda Extrait de Parfum

    Mixed it all up today for a lovely shave. The soap scent is on the lighter side and smells nice while shaving but doesn't linger around too much longer. I don't have the AS so Tris stepped in nicely. Panda pairs alright with Tris - there's nothing much to clash here as both scents are not overpowering. I'm enjoying panda a little less than I remember from the first time - the initial spray is nice with that bright apple note but it dies down rather quickly to Jasmine and sandalwood notes. Still a very nice scent.

    Return to the English AJ was good. I switched to the 7 o'clock blade here for a comparison to the US-AJ and I found this razor noticeably more efficient - I could have ended at 2 passes today. It is a very smooth razor and while there was more blade feel, I didn't experience any nicks or discomfort. I also find the areas where I tend to have some stubble left over in other shaves, there's less or none today. Overall, I think my preference is for those milder Tech type shaves but I think I need to practice with these razors more - the shave is closer to BBS and that feels friggen great.
