Thank you, Perry! Fortitude is a wonderful scent and the aftershave finishes the shave perfectly. If you're a fan of the scent I recommend the aftershave. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
@jluc and @Primotenore kept posting pictures of the Semogue Taj Mixed brush which continued to tempt me. I wanted to let you both know I finally gave into temptation and ordered one this evening. I don't even have adult beverages to blame for my weakness. I must say that I am looking forward to giving the brush a try.
Congrats, Clint, on the new Semogue brush. I look forward to your impressions of it. I'm also glad you are feeling better. Rest well tonight!
Thank you, Clint. I think you showed great restraint waiting as long as you did. Congrats! Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Good to hear! I have a tub of Fortitude and really enjoy the scent. I also have Courage, Vision, Passion, and Influence from Soap Commander. Should use their stuff more often. Anyway, I'm looking forward to some Vision and Fortitude splashes in the future, and perhaps Courage.
I love the looks of J West razors! I've been eyeing a few H Diamonds. Powerhouse scent! Maybe it will keep the subway rats at bay! Beautiful photo Jim! Thank you, Jim! Ditto! Sent from my Galaxy using Tapatalk
Vision is on deck for tomorrow. I also have Wisdom which is a peppermint lavender scent. Fine Lavender Pour Homme aftershave is a great match. Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk
