    I guess it would be Bay Rum, with "Bay" as part of the name.

    It's more of a bay leaf scent, without the heavy clove and cinnamon.

    Oh wow.....that's for me, then(I'm no clove man-I guess SOME is ok, but it should be blended in well enough with other ingredients, which is why I like Stephan BR so much.

    It sounds like you would like it. It's a good lather too. It's a croap (Shaving Cream Soap).

    Tuesday morning:

    King C. Gillette Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Bic day 6
    Top Ten Sensitive SC (from Bulgaria)
    Nip Man ASB
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash
    Stirling Baker Street EdT

    This Top Ten cream has such a nice aquatic/sporty scent and it lathers so thick, rich, with plenty of slickness, it’s pleasantly mentholated, and it’s so soothing. The Nip Man balm is awesome stuff too, and the Aqua Velva aftershave felt so chilly as well as invigorating. Finally the Baker Street completed the job perfectly - man does it ever smell nice. Two passes sufficed for a a great BBS shave!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Hi Friends,

    Here my Shave of the Day (18.12.2024)

    IMG_5314.jpeg
    Razor: iKon SBS + Maggard MR5 // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra (11) // Soap: MdC Original // Brush: Shavemac // Aftershave: Witch Hazel - Agua Brava

    Stellar shave.

    2,5 passes to be BBS. The soap with it´s wonderful blended mix of Lavender, Mint and Rosemary gave that cozy feeling and produced tons of cushiony lather with a wonderful glide. The Razor glided across my face with ease and the blade in it´s 11th use did not show a sign of degradation.

    After rinsing my face i applied Witch Hazel and after that the wonderful smelling Agua Brava which is a great pairing with the soap.

    A very smooth and relaxed shave.

    10 out of 10

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten

    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Tom's 3D Printed Brush
    Gillette Pocket Edition (1914)
    Gillette Nacet Stainless
    Cold Water Rinse
    Duru Cologne

    The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with Tom's 3D Printed Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Pocket Edition (1914) razor and the Gillette Nacet Stainless Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
