Sticking with the program.
Nothing to report other than an outstanding shave.​

 

I don't think I could handle those temperatures at all. I think it is entirely too cold here during the winter.

Happy Monday if there is such a thing. I really think I will finish this soap by the end of the month or at the worst early February. I must say that I am really enjoying this focus. The software and hardware have been fantastic. Take care and have a great day. ​

These are extreme temperatures for here as well. Coldest days I’ve seen in a decade.

-30C this morning. My truck really didn’t like it. For the first time in a very long time, I had a significant weeper. User error, completely.
Have a great day all.

 

very nice Jason.can you think of any similar scents to dior au savauge? cheers.

 

Thanks, Gary. A similar scent to Eau Sauvage? I have nothing that is really close in my den. Colonia has a few similar notes, but isn’t that close overall. Perhaps Joseph can help better, as I know he has the Dior Eau sauvage and a better nose than mine.

 

While my nose isn't that great, consensus is that Armani Eau Pour Homme has a similar feel to it. Disclaimer: I have never smelled it.

Happy Tuesday Everyone. Bit of a messy morning here in the ATL starting with ran followed by a cold front. We are anticipating temps in the mid teens later this week. I really need to move someplace warmer. Another excellent shave this morning. This is one of my favorite 3017 attempts thus far. Take care and have a great day. ​

 

I have a stick of La Toja and have never tried it. It sits in my travel bag. I need to give it a shot.

The days of outstanding shaves keep rolling with this excellent soap. Can someone please open up that factory in Holland again? I don't remember this razor being this smooth...I suspect it is just the awesome slickness of the soap.
Have a great day all!

 

thank you both so much.n the end i think i will just buy a bottle when the time comes.i just purchased Floris 89 edt and Truefitt 1805 edt on a whim for this year's frag budget and didn't want to blind buy a third.just 3017'ed my large bottle of Burberry Brit .

 

I really liked it as a shave stick. However, La Toja grated into a bowl is something special.

Ethos Bay Rum~~Simpson CH3~~Cooper MonoBilt/Feather (2)~~Guerlain Vetiver EdT
Over the years, I have had numerous CH3s. This is the one I have decided to keep.
The knot is uber-soft, loads like a dream and feels ultra-luxurious on the skin.
The Cooper---loaded with a Feather blade, is a force of nature.
Finished with a traditional, manly and oh-so lovely stank.​

 

I have a stick I got as an order top up from Gifts and Care in Spain. Haven’t tried it. Sounds like I need to grate it up.

 

Yup.
