Thursday, July 25 Meißner-Tremonia Lavender~~Rubberset 400/3~~Detroit National Cut. Co.~~Fine Lavender AS Have a great day!
Is the scent of this soap natural? Or artificial? And intensity wise, how do you rate it? I tested many soaps/creams and like their performance, but strongly perplexed by scents!
I find this lavender to be quite "natural" and would say it's a medium-strong scent. 7/10. It is VERY similar to Czech & Speake's Oxford & Cambridge.
I heard it was good and strong... I might fall in love before sniffing it! O&C is not lavender in purity, but it has an extraordinary fragrance! Thank you!

Brush stand by Josh Lindt of Desire Metal Works. His work of art is called "Diner". Click on that link and then use the Etsy contact option on his store and request a custom project. Josh Lindt artistically created it upon my request for him to make a 1950's aesthetic shave brush stand. Yeah, as you can see, he made a great piece of art. It's totally his design.

I haven't posted an SOtD in a while and I used B&M soap for the first time today, so here it is. The brush is a Brad Sears Super 3 band in an Arley handle made of ebony resin and Nachtgras ebonite and the razor is an ATT SE-2 with a Kai Mild blade.
