    This gear is not what I used this morning, bright, after being deluded by the fog that protected the countryside just after sunrise.
    This is what I will use tonight to shave, as I have to get up at an ungodly hour tomorrow morning.
    It is already laid out on the sink (except for the EdT) ready to use.

    What will the shave be like?
    I don't know, but history suggests that, most likely, it will be satisfactory. Otherwise I would have chosen something else!

    Sunday morning:

    Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 14
    Bundubeard Sanga Symphony SS
    Intesa AS Gel
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    The Astra Green blade really dulled out a lot on me but it still managed to do the job one last time so I have no complaints whatsoever. Jaco’s Sanga Symphony is such a delightful soap - it’s tallow based just like his Rooi Afrikaner, the scent is lovely - a soapy/cologney type, the lather is so rich, thick, as well as slick, and the postshave feeling is so comfortable. The Intesa gel is from Italy, it smells nice, it’s very moisturizing, as well as soothing, and it gives a good cooling sensation. The Bleu de Chanel.......I frigging LOVE that fragrance so much. Three passes resulted in a perfect BBS shave!

    Have a nice Sunday - be well and safe!

    If there had been a "Sunday Super Saver Shaver" award today, I do believe you'd take the trophy home! :happy096:

    That looks like one of the best under $5.00 shaves available. Plus, I see you still have a decent amount of the Pacific Rush AS on hand.

    Well done!

    A very tobacco forward scent. I get mostly dry tobacco leaves or unsweetened pipe tobacco, with a little Mousse de Saxe. I really like it. My wife says I smell like maple bacon, but I don't get that at all. Strange how our noses are so different. I got a few small weepers, but otherwise a solid shave. This scent is not smoky.
