    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Soap
    Heldtite Synthetic
    Mercur Progress
    Personna Super (67)
    CWR
    Pinaud Clubman AS

    The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with the Heldtite Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Mercur Progress (7) Razor with a Personna Super (67) Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Hello,
    If you ever find yourself climbing the cliffs of insanity you may find yourself confronted by a Spaniard.
    The dual begins with the refreshing scent of lavender, lemon, coriander and sea air with complementary notes of orange blossoms neroli and verdant greens, then cedar and patchouli finish the battle.
