    Good shave . The soap lathered well but not much scent. I thought i could smell old spice but i dont think its an old spice clone. The razor confuses me but gave me an excellent shave

    Hi Friends,

    here is my yesterday’s shave (23.06.2021)

    D9B442D2-F3CB-414A-9EBF-3676429F472C.jpeg
    Preshave: Menthol Cube // Razor: PILS 104 NE // Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium // Soap: Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica // Brush: Shavemac Jade Synthetic // Aftershave: Ach.Brito Lavanda

    I bought the razor from a member in our Facebook Group here in Germany. Used…maaaaan, what a fine Razor. Not everyone likes or loves it due to the special angle while shaving. I own the iKon S3S so i was aware of that and had absolutely no difficulties.

    The shave was a blast. The PILS is SO mild, that you don‘t even recognize the blade in it. And it so thoroughly at the same time…phew…great great great!!!

    I could have stopped after two passes, because the shave was more than socially acceptable (near BBS), but I loved the shave so much that I did a third pass. Against the grain this razor is the smoothest I’ve tried so far. No resistance at all. The blade seems to be a super combination with it, but I need to try the Feather and the Gillette Bleue Extra too.

    The soap performed stellar as everytime. My favorite SV soap in their range. The brush has a little too much backbone for me, so I did painting motions instead of swirls.

    Splashed with one of my best Aftershaves…this scent is so incredibly good…spicy with just a touch of citrus and combined with lavender. Oh my god…I love it.

    So, this is it for now.

    Enjoy your shaves, take care and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten
