    Great photo as always, Clint. I love Shiloh. I'm a huge AdP Colonia fan. I have the AdP Cologne and AS balm. I have the beautifully performing (and expensive) soap as well, but as you probably know, AdP's soap no longer smells like Colonia. RazoRock's XXX was my go-to for years as a Colonia soap replacement. Fortunately, Oleo's Canard base came along, and Shiloh's fragrance is a precise match to my nose. The performance easily surpasses that of RazoRock's.

    Thank you. I agree with you. I love Shiloh. The scent is fantastic and the performance is on par with the best. I can say with certainty, I will repurchase Shiloh.

    I prefer the Very Cool Spray over the original EDT and parfum versions of Sauvage. Which of course will mean that the Very Cool Spray won't stay on the market and will be discontinued someday.

    Razor - Fatip Piccolo
    Blade - [​IMG] (1)
    Soap - Blood on Steel 2018 by Jeeves of Hudson Street
    Brush - 30 DC LE
    Alum

    Fairly busy day today. I put in some hours making money to make up for my days off later this week and got a few other errands done. Shave time rolled around and I decided to stay aggressive with the Fatip Piccolo. The Ladas SS blade from Mostochlegmash is a perfect match for this razor. Sharp and smooth and an all around great performer. I chose the Blood on Steel soap from the meet up last year. In a few more weeks we'll have a new Blood on Steel creation for the meet up. I used the 30DC LE brush tonight, and I'm looking forward to the new meet up LE brush that will be available at the meet up too! I think you're going to love the new brush. I haven't unwrapped any of them yet (ok so maybe one to take a peek). Like the LE brush from before they are similar but not identical. More on that later. By the way, I updated the list of attendees for the meet up on the thread last night. If anyone needs to add their name or needs hotel info - it's on that thread in the Chatterbox or you can just PM me.

    On with the shave tonight - the Fatip is a favorite, even though it can bite if you ignore it. Tonight was a night of perfection for it. Very smooth, easy going and comfortable shave. Three passes and the alum is silent and the baby is in the house. Can't beat it. The scent of the Blood on Steel is lightly hanging around too. I like it.

    Have a great Tuesday!

    Beautiful shave with the Wilkinson sword classic, what a fantastic razor, definitely aimed at people looking for a lightweight travel razor or people who want to wet shave on a budget, something very few of us here can say we achieve lol.

    The Wilkinson sword is a fantastic shaving razor, ill post my review on it shortly.

    First shave with the Omega 49, i soaked it for 30 minutes, and then palm lathered a tiny bit of arko for about 10 minutes and the split ends are forming nicely!

    Razor: Wilkinson sword classic
    Blade: feather hi stainless (37)
    Brush: omega 49
    Soap:boots original shave stick
    Aftershave balm: aquaeous
    Aftershave:(none, night shave)[​IMG]

    That's a frag that I've heard a lot about and I will be ordering a sample of in the months ahead. By all descriptions it's a spectacular summer scent. Xerjoff is, of course, super-high-end.
