    It's in a league of it's own for a DE razor mid range razor, for cost of a SS razor & over all performance. I get consistent good shaves with this RR Lupo.72 for over a year now (54 weekly shaves).
    Blade: Gillette Astra SP, excellent blade, sharp & smooth with good longevity + cost per shave.
    Soap: Razorock Lavender, nice masculine lavender scent with excellent lather qualities. On 3rd tub of great soap.
    Brush: Yaqi purple haze 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips ,gentle scrub, excellent painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.

    I'm glad you said "nice masculine lavender" as lavender was originally a scent for males.

    It's to bad Italian barber quit this line of soap, at first I thought Lavender was a flower but it's more a weed but it does flower. The first 2 or 3 shaves I was not overly impressed but the fragrance that lingers in the bowl after a shave is really addictive to me anyways. Lavender soaps are good and for what ever reason I rarely get nicks or weepers from it and Ach Brito Lavada cream is excellent also, it must be the oil from the plant. Also lavender has a calming effect for folks, it is a known fact that I learned before I purchased these soaps.
