I have been enjoying Hotel Cecil this week and it is good stuff. I don’t know if it is because I am recovering from Covid or if it is the products but the scent seems somewhat mild. Steve
SOTD razor: gillette plastic tech Blade : 7 oclock Brush: paa 400 Soap: vetiver Post: stirling vetiver witch hazel Killer shave this morning. Vetiver is of my favorite scents. I love me some mystic waters and this stirling witch hazel. I ran out of soap a couple of years ago, but i just found this small amount in a sample jar.. maybe subconsciously i stored some of it away ? Either way the razor shave nicely and shaves different than the metal ones. It has a crisp cut to it. Hard to explain but i dig it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Looking at today's posts I see that Derby was a popular choice. Their must have been something in the air because Derby was my blade pick for today. Of all blades I've tried I like this brand the least but having said that the shave I had today was excellent. Merkur 34 HD Derby Extra Proraso White Parker Brush Shave Nation bowl Head Lube Matte
