    Scent Discriptions:
    [​IMG]
    Fresh Vetiver is a modern scent for the vintage soul - perfect for today's wet shavers who wish to add a dash of sophistication to their routine. Inspired by Tom Ford’s Grey Vetiver (2009), the fragrance superbly blends a slightly grassy vetiver base note with grated citrus accompanied by wet concrete, metal, and ozone.
    Green Vetiver is a distinctive, yet versatile fragrance, that makes for an ideal signature scent. Inspired by Guerlain Vetiver (1961), the accord opens with a wisp of citrus, which is immediately complemented by a clean vetiver base note and hints of tobacco.

    Thank you gentelmen.
    I am feeling better and thanks for all the kind words. Now that I'm able to do things, time is at a premium. Getting things done round here that have been let go for to many weeks.

    Got a wonderful shave with my PAL adjustable and B-20 blades. They feel and run like Feathers, no pulling or tugging. I was able to do a 3 pass with one B-20 blade with only minor pulling on the 3rd pass, the Schick blades for the razor just don't do it for me. The head shave was ok, but I should have changed the blade, took 3 full passes and some touch up for a nice smooth job. CAD soap was good and slick with a mild sent. Nick was nowhere to be found, only a small itch before I slothered the Nivea on. I have to admit that some blades are different once you learn how to handle your razor, at least to me. Counted my DE and SE razors this morning just for fun. If I use a different razor every day, not including the dups, it will take over 3 months to get through them all. I have a few more on the way....well.
    Now not seeing any other post the way I like, EVERY ONE HAVE A GREAT DAY !!
    It's above 40F and drying off, so out the door I need to get.

    I like all the songs from The Jazz Singer, Paul. Great soundtrack, and that actually turned me into a Neal Diamond fan as well.

    April 27

    Mongoose (batch 2) in satin SS w/Dr. Bomber handle
    Feather Artist Club Super Professional (5)
    Kent BK4 silvertip badger
    C.O. Bigelow
    Alum, Thayers WH, USB, and Liquid Gold

    Two passes on two days of growth and some work on the back of my neck left me ultra smooth and uber comfortable. Shazam, just like that. Although I'd like to be finished with the Liquid Gold, this is a set up I could use indefinitely. It just works well and is fun to use.

    We have beautiful weather, some running around planned for today, and we have tickets to see Newsies at the dinner theater this evening. The show should be a lot of fun. This is our last hoorah on our season tickets.

    Have a great weekend, gentlemen.
