    It's not a scent for everyone. It's one of those scents that you're just as likely to hate as love. If you don't like citronella, it ain't for you. For those of us that love it, there's nothing quite like it. I don't have another soap that even comes close to the scent of Electric Sheep.
    Now that you're a "frag head", it may not be classy enough for you. :happy102:

    Thank you Jason. I am trying to talk myself into giving the razor a fair chance. I love everything about the Nodachi but using it. :D

    I haven't yet descended into the world of scent-snobbery.

    Wishing now I had bet $500 on the house...My winnings would then cover a shiny new Wolfman. Gosh, those are pretty razors. NBer's, cover your eyes...

    @Edison Carter, Forced Cookie Consumption is unfortunately not possible for me; however, I have mastered Voluntary Cookie Consumption. ;)

    I think ascending into the world of scent snobbery or "putting on airs" would be more appropriate. Lol!

    Thank you Blair! I am going to use it more often to deep six it. I bought Cella, Fine Platinum (haven't hit it) and Tabac last month so I need to use up my soap inventory. Fat chance! Lol! However, I am on a NB '21 for soaps and brushes. I am still free to buy razors, aftershaves, balms and blades. Happy New Year to you, Blair!

    First shave of the year and I still have not decided on a focus. I may just ride this shaving bus as Charlie @wristwatchb drives and Joseph @Primotenore navigates. I don't know who is in charge of discipline but I am sure he will make his presence known. Sounds like a job for Gary @brit. :D

    Wonderful late shave today with a neglected razor. The new brush whipped up the Mitchell’s Wool Fat into some glorious thick and cushiony lather. The Edwin Jagger is a mild boy but is just a great razor. I love the handle on this one. I think it is called the Barley handle but I could be wrong. Finished the shave with some Scottish Antique by Andy Hilfiger.

    Gentlemen, I am thankful for the friendship over the last year and I am definitely looking forward to this year with each and every one of you. Hopefully we will pick up some newbies along the way.

    Y'all have a great weekend!

    Great shavette shave, Joe! Glad you’re enjoying warm water shaving! Not for me, but I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Enjoy your shaves! :)

    Thanks Dave! I am fortunate enough that I can get away without shaving every 36 hrs and still be socially acceptable. Sometimes, I shave any where close to the 30 hr mark up to 48 hrs. It depends on my social activity of the day. It is rare for me to go over 60 hrs without shaving.

    Don't worry, Dave. If we use the Cone of Silence, our conversation is private.

    Dave, I beg you, NEVER bring up granules or synthetic Oud. :scared003:
