10/8 Max Sprecher 1/2 Hollow Barber's Notch
Catie's Bubbles Tuxedo Knot
Tabac Shave Stick
Pinaud Clubman Classic Aftershave.
Whiskers: 41 hrs.
Well I got my first delivery today that included the Fine Platinum SS and AS with the Tabac. Later today, I am getting another delivery of my Cella, Arko and a tuck of Feathers. Anyway, I didn't want to wait for the Cella because I wanted to shave this morning and try the Tabac shave stick.
This was my first time using a shave stick and any Tabac product. I have to say that the stick was easy to use. I wet my face and rubbed the dry stick on my face. With a damp brush, I facelathered and the Tabac exploded into a voluminous, slick, shiny lather. I have to say I was really surprised by this lather's excellent quality. As far as the scent, I can see how someone can interpret it as the inside of grandma's purse, but to me, it smells like a unique masculine scent. I really can't describe it any other way, but I like it so I am chosen by Tabac.
This was my 20th shave with the Mad Max and she really did an awesome job once again. Two passes delivered an error free, BBS - shave.
I didn't get the matching aftershave so I decided to use Clubman classic. I was surprised that this scent and the Tabac gave a sweeter fragance. Again, this is my nose so ymmv.
One more thing, I did smell the Fine Platinum soap and aftershave. Again, the scent strength on the Fine soap was weak but I did pick up a clean scent from it. The Fine Platinum aftershave was masculine and it wasn't overpowering. I never tried Creed Aventus so I don't know how close this dupe is to it.
Have an awesome day guys!
