    Used the early 46 Aristocrat last shave. This one is the standard 46 - 48 Aristocrat you usually find for sale when perusing listings. Totally different razor too from the early 46, is more mild but a closer shaver. A razor this mild shouldn't be this efficient, it easily can hang with the big boys and outshave most them. End result BBS finish achieved.
  7. Pre: Hot Shower
    Lather: #firstuse of HC&C Bay Rum
    Razor: Kai Beauty eyebrow razor
    Post: HC&C balm w/ Bay Rum Scent oil added

    #firstuse of this or any other scented HC&C soap (if you don't count White Star). Superb performance and a nice spicy bay rum scent. I loaded the brush from the tub and face lathered. A ten second brush load (after blooming the soap for ~30 sec) produced enough lather for two shaves.

  12. Love me some bay rum. Any chance can you compare the scent to Pinaud Virgin Island Bay Rum aftershave?

    This is how Bandit's Trans Am smelled after Carrie spent the day in it.
  14. Unfortunately I haven't tried the Pinaud, so I can't really say. But I do really enjoy this HC&C scent. I'm happy to scoop and mail you a sample if you like (assuming you're in the CONUS). PM if interested.

  17. Thanks! I felt a 70s vibe for some reason. I very rarely use a DE, but this particular shave called for the 1976 SS.
