    Did I enter the lavender tunnel?
    Better in the lavender tunnel than the sewage tunnel, if only for the smell! (I see, however. a light at the end of the tunnel: I hope it's not 9:05 to Rome!)

    By the way, I like the performance of the Valobra.

    I often talk about fragrances, but for me they are essential to achieve my coenesthesis!

    Even today I went out and faced the stupidity and approximation of people I meet. Anyone can do silly things, but the "fool" will always be right no matter what the motives of those who dispute it.
    And even if he evaluated them, he wouldn't be able to understand them. Why? Because he's stupid! (I know you have already heard that in a movie...).
    A vicious circle, right?
    And that makes me desperate.

    But now I'm home, alone, and the only nonsense I have to deal with is my own.
    But I'm smart and I listen critically to my criticism, I analyze it, I evaluate it.
    And then I reject it in its entirety!
    Even if it's irrelevant: even if I accepted my criticism, I would be right anyway!
    It's nice to live alone...

    By the way... more than satisfying a shaving!

    Terrific Collaboration
    This was my first use of any APR product and I gotta say it was top shelf. The soap was made by Storybook Soapworks and shares the scent with the splash. It starts out with a fruit note like plums and apricots, then a little boozy and drying down to a woody amber. All together it is very classy. My skin feels great too.

    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Musgo Real Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #2 Two-band badger
    Bunny V3 Injector
    Schick Proline
    CWR
    Cella ASB

    The Musgo Real Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector with a Schick Proline blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  19. Phoenix SS-AL DOC/Kai. Very underappreciated razor. Hybrid steel and aluminum head with Ti handle yields good balance and a comfortable 53g.My only nitpick is the comb is a little toothy, but results superb with handle backed off 1/8 or so.[​IMG]
