This is an exchange with a friend. It was born precisely to try Aroania. The idea is to compare it with my favorite of the category, the Meissner Tremonia Gentle Menthol. But I already know that type of fragrance. So I take time to try others I don't know. Thank you.
Tuesday shave: The big golden Dorko does take a nice edge, a very nice edge. The gold etching is appropriate for an emperor's shave too. The soap, Electric Sheep smells more like Off bug spray than emperor but it does perform. Today's perfume is keeping within July's theme, Parfum d'Empire Amber Russie. I must have been channeling the 30DC thread, without reading about the discussion of Jason's @jtspartan I picked one of his handles that has a silky soft Shavemac silver tip installed for today's shave. Also the soap bowl was made by Jason and while not pictured my lather bowl was made by Jason too. The shave was excellent.
July 7th Razor: Rocnel Elite 2019LE A Blade: Astra SS (1) Brush: Elite Razor/Simpson Sovereign T3 Pre-shave: PAA Rabid Banana Cube Soap: PAA Astra Planeta PAA Galactic witch hazel PAA unscented Star Jelly AS: PAA Astra Planeta Good morning! Amazing shave to start the day! Steep angle shave with the Rocnel Elite. I can't deny, it works. Three buttery smooth passes for near BBS and completely silent alum. Have a great day!

Great shave, Keith! I must be the only member of the 30DC Crew with no product by Jason. May I ask where Dorko is made? It is an amazingly funny product name!
As you probably know the SS Lupo was Ruds Shaves’s 2019 product of the year. I’ll be shaving my dome with mine today.
Emperors need protection from mosquitos too, Keith. Indeed, I am told that Caesar Augustus had a particular aversion to those blood-sucking insects. Nice Dorko.
