Henri et Victoria Cognac & Cuban Cigars today. 20 seconds to load the Henri et Victoria High Mountain White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette Silver Blue still in the Maggard V2 Open Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Burberry Brit EdT.

I had to work a bit harder to get a BBS shave today because the blade lost a lot of its sharpness. The first pass told me the whole story - it wasn’t going to be so easy this morning, but I still got the job done!

Lovely set ups and kits Gents. Game, set, match....

So I was on a run of OCs until a discussion broke out on one of the forums about the Merkur Progress vs the Parker Variant...you know how they go right? So sorry Mr. New please step aside and let in Mr. Progress in. I have a Mergress and Progress both of the standard length handle variety. Love them both but that cool Art Deco knob on the stock Merkur is just so cool. Loaded up with a Voskhod today but both the Progress and Mergress have no qualms with whatever DE blade you want to throw at them.

Soap of the day was RazoRock Gold which is a lovely blend of citrus, woodsy notes and Amber. What a great soap and scent. Todays’s brush was the Simpson Colonel X2L in Best which comes from a buddy @Rev579 down in Texas. Still not quite sure why he let it come my way (he has many, MANY primo brushes of the vintage type) love the loft and it is a lathering machine!

To the races we went and a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing three pass BBS shave was had! Love the Friday afternoon shave as rare as they are. Topped it off with some Prada Amber Pour Homme Intense...oh yes indeed! Some fine duds and off to take Mrs. Somnos for dinner! Long week but the weekend is finally upon us! Take care, safe travels and happy shaves all!
