    Cool, color coordinated. MdC Fougère is one of my favorite scents for a soap.

    Great to hear from you and I see you have prepared for the shaveapocalips.

    Saturday shave: I usually do not use a heavily mentholated soap when I shaving with a straight razor. Today I wanted to use a straight and some cold to beat the heat so I went with a razor I know if very smooth, a Mastro Livi Giffreto. A Tom White B-400 did it's job, the lather was slick and cold and the shave was excellent.

    Be careful and stay safe! I think it’s criminal to insist on teachers being in the classroom without a viable vaccine!

    :happy097: What a cop-out Jeff!!! Tell him how you really feel!!! :happy102:
    @myles wilson Tabac is unique. One of the greatest, classic soaps ever produced. Scent is very European and only those with mature, well-seasoned and discriminating sense of smell appreciate it. I, of course, am a great fan...along with all the other shavers "in the know".

    Excellent choice of razors, Keith. What's that Creed hiding in the background? Vetiver?

    Dogs woke me at 5am...yawn.
    Forgot to cage them and came down to the kitchen and stepped in a HUGE pool of urine. :angry019:
    Half a roll of paper towels later and after washing my feet and hands, I tried to go back to sleep.
    Wasn't going to happen. :angry019:
    Snapped at Dr. Mrs. Primo---unfairly, necessitating an obligatory     apology a few hours later.
    Thinks are back to normal and, at least, enjoyed a quality shave.
    These "old school" soaps are the cat's meow, especially because they don't rely on a cadre
    of oils to make their product lather.
    The C&E lavender is a wonderful example.
    I face-lathered the product this morning, and while it will never achieve the shine that
    the newer artisan soaps do, nonetheless, it afforded me a terrific base on my skin,
    allowing the razor/blade to glide effortlessly and rid my face of the stubble completely.
    While I could have reached for a lavender finish, the Old Spice was screaming at me to be used.
    Glad I did.    ​
