Any chance you're joining us for Cinco de Julio?

  1. Of course. In fact, I save my popsicle sticks for just this occasion!

  1. Nice report, Joseph!
    Licorice and smoke?! Don't know about that.

    A smooth shave earlier this morning, with the same razor & blade combo from the weekend. These Superspeeds really are smooth, mild shavers. I went with a 3 pass shave with this great smelling soap and am looking forward to starting a few weeks of vacation time tomorrow.
    Have a great day all!
  3. Great photo and shave, Jason! Enjoy your time off!
  4. Great photo, Perry! I've never thought of getting a pineapple scented soap or splash, but by the sounds of it, this is a universally loved product.
    A stunner, Clint. There seems to be mixed reviews on the Thater Boars, but you speak very highly of your beaut. Glad it worked out.
    Looking forward to your synopsis comparing the different Superspeeds at the end of the month, Jim!
    That razor looks amazing, Joseph. I hope the Roam grows on you. I have a number of B&M soaps, but I'd only call one of them one of the 'polarizing' ones- Lavanille. I'm a huge fan of both his current bases- Glissant and Reserve.
  5. Thank you, Jason! I agree that I'd never lean towards a pineapple scented product either. But it's such a great scent. Really enjoyable, as is Lemon Chill and Grapefruit. Now Lemony Orange is back for a short run and it's terrific. @PickledNorthern says the Stirling Lime scent is amazing as well. Rod does citrus well, I guess.

  6. I like Stoylin Lime-got it as a sample A.S. I believe a Lemony Orange is headed my way soon(generous PIF).
  7. Nice picture, Jason.
    Enjoy your time off!

  8. Another wonderful photo and report. It is shame that many of the B&M scents are so polarizing.
  9. Great photo and lineup Jason. Enjoy your vacation.

  10. Yes, I’d add Gin and Tonic to that list as well.
  11. Thank you Jason. I will preface my comments on the Thater Boar by admitting I am really not a boar guy. I enjoy using the Thater Boar as much or more than any boar brush I have used. However, I am not sure that it is worth the price of admission. The best way I can reconcile the price is to equate it to harvesting a boar knot and having a nice custom handle made. Were it available at the time, I likely would have went with the Semoge mix knot resin handle SOC.
  12. I've only tried one B&M soap, the Bay Rum, and that particular BR scent didn't agree with me, either.
  13. I have all the Reserves, Seville and LGC. Fortunately I like them all.

  14. Iced Pineapple is amazing, glad you are enjoying it Neal!
    Great shave Perry!
    Awesome photo, Clint!
    Very nice Jim!
    Beautiful group of products, Joseph! Those blades are Personna's, same as the Lab Blue's but sold in a dispenser. As far as the Roam goes, based on your description I'm glad I didn't get that one.
    Fantastic photo, Jason! Enjoy your vacation!
  15. Thank you, Andrew!

  16. I really like Seville. I couldn’t stand Lavanille. Unless I get samples first I really don’t see myself purchasing any other B&M soaps.
