    Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber today. 20 seconds to load the RazoRock/Zenith Chubby Extra Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Gillette “Spoiler” Super Stainless blade in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Clubman Whiskey Woods aftershave.

    What is the scent profile on this soap 13A? Certainly looks interesting.

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 2
    Ingram SC
    Prep ASB
    Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

    The Ingram cream I used this morning is from Egypt and it sells for such cheap money that even someone on the tightest budget would be able to afford it. It’s got a nice minty, slightly medicinal scent like the UK version with the same rich, dense lather but a stronger menthol sensation. The Prep is now officially my favorite balm, and the Alt Innsbruck smells delightful, although the wife can’t stand it. Two passes were good enough for a great BBS shave - these Shark blades are among the best in Egypt.

    Avon calling! Got this is the 2019 pass around. It as well as another one leaked pretty badly, but I was able to salvage this one.
    Good shave today. IMG_20190813_084428_616.jpg

    Thanks, this soap was created by members of the Dirty South Shavers (a Facebook shave group) when they held a meet-up at Soap Commander headquarters in North Alabama. Various scents were available and laid out. They were numbered, lettered, or symboled. The group came up with the scent profile which contained scents 1, 3, A and ▲. So that's where the title comes from. Unfortunately I can't recall what they all are! I know two of the scents are lemon and amber, but that's all I can remember.

    It was a wonderful scent and a tremendous quality soap. I know you realize that since I've seen your posts with Soap Commander software.
