    I really like both the Fine L'Orange Noir and the Fine Platinum. Both are excellent aftershaves in my opinion.

    some people equate the Fine Platinum with Stirling's Executive Man. Now THAT is an exciting comparison.

    I can't say since I have never used Stirling's Executive man. I do find the Fine Platinum to work really well with a variety of different shaving soap scents.

    my two Fine choices would be Platinum and American Blend.

    My inability to make LPL work for me seems to be easing. Not great but good lather.

    Razor: Gillette 3 piece tech.
    Blade: Rapira Platinum Lux(2)
    Brush: VDH Badger
    Lather: Cremo
    Pre Shave Oil
    A/S Gillette Gel/Brut Splash On
    Newspaper Date: Oct. 25, 1944

    A fine, easy 2 pass shave,1st pass, WTG with some clean up before lathering for 2nd pass, ATG/XTG and clean up. Only 2 small weepers on 2nd pass, an extensive cold water "bath" took care of it fine. Feel like a new man, the problem is, how does the new man feel. I guess a shave I would be proud to take home to mom. Happy Camper, feel great,(new man). Monday and I`m ready for the world. Happy shaving to all concerned.. 6-27-2016 Tue Save 001.JPG 6-27-2016 Tue Save 002.JPG

    Good morning friends! First time trying the Ericsson and what a great shave! It doesn't feel quite as aggressive as the New SC but it is just as efficient. I am really loving vintage open comb razors. Just two passes this morning for a DFS. I did manage to give a little twitch at the end of a stroke that gave me a little nick on my neck but not even that could diminish how great my face feels. Have a great day everyone!
