Lovely setup pic and shave, Joe, lovely colours! Not familiar with the Oud Spice, but then there are so many products out there.
11 Aug 2023 (Adjustable, Arko August, Artisan August, Anything goes, Adapting-Adjusting-on-the-fly August) A short mini Arko focus... 24 hours <> essentially the same setup as y'day with just a different brush... Prep = Cold water face prep and Proraso white Soap / Cream = Arko to the Rescue Brush = Omega 49, stiffer than the Puro Tasso, nice easy lather pick up from the tub Bowl = Timeless Razor = Merkur Progress, still set at 2 - 3 Blade = Gillette Platinum (2 ½) Passes = 3 and touch ups Post = Cold water rinse, Alum, Thayers, el cheapo Brut rapidly nearing the end, Proraso ASB Scent = Guerlain Pour Homme Damage = Zero Score = 9.5/10. Not quite as smooth as y’day, DFS nevertheless Comments = Yes I am still liking the cold water shave with this particular setup. The Arko scent was still making its presence felt on the way to work, but not for long Hope you are having a great Friday ladies and gents
Fine shave this morning, above and including the jawline, not so much at Cactus Nation(neck). Cheeks&sideburns checked in well, as did both ends of Porcupine. I had to do a little extra work up North(just below the nose), but got what needed to be gotten. I missed sections of Cactus...that won't happen tomorrow. Probably because I couldn't spread it too well(the soap)with the Clubman Pinaud brush. To paraphrase from JAWS-"I'm gonna need a bigger brush". I'll have it tomorrow,.Aaaah, I shouldn't blame the brush size, as Stoylin's "li'l brudder" is also small, but the knot is thicker on the Stoylin. Great again with the Mennen Skin-Bracer A.S.The pour-spout presents a bit of a challenge, but it isn't as wide as that of Aqua Velva. Most Outstanding for today.

Wonderful Shave Joe....The Oud Spice sounds wonderful...As one of my many 60th birthday gifts from family and friend I received a bottle of Dirham Oud EDP Dirham Oud 100ml | Eau de Arabian Parfum | Oriental Musky Sandalwood (for Men and Women) (Unisex) : Amazon.co.uk: Beauty I had a quick spray of it when I opened it and really like it..You'll see it appear in my shave set ups in the fall/winter months.
Today's and yesterday's shaves. Yaqi Sentinel 1.5mm stainless steel head. Timeless Razor Crown Titanium handle. Astra SP blade. Shore Shave Cool Water Mint Ribbon synthetic brush. Tabac shave soap. Timeless Razor shave bowl. American Tobacco by Andy Hilfiger cologne. Awesome shaves. Take care everyone!
Thank you Chris. Currently the Oud Spice is not available on the PAA website so I can not get a scent description. Over the last two years, PAA has made this a limited edition release in the late Fall (late Spring for you).
SRS # 939 - Fougere Friday Shave - Brocha Rating: 5 / 5 Razor: Schick - Injector Type G Blade: Persona Injector Brush: Brent Jacobson Tamarind and Ebony w/ Paragon 24mm boar Lather: Old Cahaba Shave Club Brocha Aftershave: Los Jabones de Joserra Brocha Additional Care: Omega Alum Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm Excellent three pass shave with the Type G injector. The OCSC Brocha produced a nice slick medium thick lather lather which provided a wonderful cushion for the blade to perform its magic. I spent the afternoon making homemade pizza in my Bertellello Pizza Oven. Deliciousness! Hope you all have had a great day.
Thank you Barry. Sounds like a wonderful birthday gifts that you will enjoy for a LI g time. I do so enjoy the Oud. Of I am a big fan of the Old Spice fragrance as well. The two pair very nicely.
