    You're probably correct.

    Whew. This week is just about over. I could be happy with this lineup for a very long time. Everything just works so well together. ​

    The soap is starting to disappear rapidly. Using it every day, it seems to stay quite moist and I'm going through it at a more rapid rate.
    I went full on Brut dupe for an early morning meeting. The team can thank me later...;)

    There's gotta be a law against this cut and paste misinformation...

    AoS Rose Absolute~~Morris & Forndran Ali Baba 2~~Gem Clog-Pruf/Gem~~Royall Mandarin
    Day Thirteen.
    It's been a while since I took this Sabini-knot to soap.
    The handle, while shapely, is a bit petite for my liking.
    The fan-knot is quite "gelly" and supremely soft on the face.
    The AoS is giving up the ghost and I anticipate being finished sometime next week.
    Finished with an UNADULTERATED, vintage, "Made in Bermuda" Royall Mandarin.
    Why it took me so long to discover these products is beyond me.

    Very nice Joseph. Are the new Royall products any good?

    Happy Friday!!! The end is near for this puck of MdC. I would guess somewhere between 3 to 5 shaves remaining. ​

    Hard to say. Now they are manufactured in the US under the "authority" of the Bermuda Royall firm.
    I have never tried the newer products.
    As a "vintage junky" I was attracted to the older juice, which is really nice, but doesn't last too long.

    Thank you. I might give the new stuff a try after I finish up some of the stuff I have.

    Not many days for the soap left now...
    A rare vintage injector shave today. I need to reach for them more often.

    Thank you Jason. I thought about you when I took the photo. Looks like you are just about done with your soap as well. :eatdrink047: Now we only have to decide what's next.

    AoS Rose Absolute~~Hucklaration B5~~Cobra Classic/Schick Pro-Line~~Royall Muske
    Day Fourteen.
    Here's what's remaining of the AoS:
    IMG_7019.jpeg
    The DG B5 made short work of the lathering.
    Lovely, as usual.
    The Cobra Classic was loaded with a fresh Schick Proline P-30. Shout out to @clint64 for hooking me up with these blades.
    They are smooth and sharp. Less harsh than the Feathers.
    BBS in three.
    Barbershop stank extraordinaire with the Royall Muske.

    After watching your dedication with the MdC, you've inspired me to tackle a triple milled product. I usually take about a week between 'Titanics' and then I'll focus on my tub of Saponificio Varesino Colonia. That won't be a quick one...:shocked029:

    I was considering my tub of LEA Classic shave soap. However given your choice, I will go with SV Felce Aromatica for my next victim.

    Well, that certainly won’t be a hardship smelling that scent everyday. Awesome.
    I have a full tub of LEA classic as well.

    You are so right. The scent is simply intoxicating.

    Since we both have LEA Classic, we have our following victim lined up.
