Friday, May 19 AoS Lavender~~Zenith B507~~Pre War USA Tech/Gillette Platinum~~Initio Oud for Greatness Day Twenty One 3017'd the Art of Shaving/Valobra lavender. Exquisite lather 100% of the run.

Saturday, May 20 Vintage Yardley~~Simpson M7~~Barbasol FH/Gillette Platinum~~Meehan Bay Rhum Inspired by @James Kleinkauf I broke out the vintage Yardley soap. And while I am not going to 3017 it, it did create super-stunning suds. The Barbasol left a few marks on my neck in its wake. The Bay R(h)um went on great and always receives a SWMBOSOA®©™ Not sure what to 3017 next. Maybe something besides a soap.
May 20, 2023 Blackland Era Level 4 CH3 Synthetic Gillette 7 O’clock Black MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica A beautiful sunny day here in the ATL and I actually sort of feel like a human again. Even more so after a shower and shave. The MdC continues do disappear at a steady pace which is all that I can expect.
I read a review, that said OfG was supposed to remind one of oud wood resins vaporizing on a white hot coal.I have a small sample of pure Cambodian Oud oil. OfG is much sweeter, albeit without rose.

Do you: 1) Load the brush and go to the face? 2) Build the lather "on the puck"? 3) Load the brush and finish in a bowl?
I load the brush and then begin face lathering. While loading I end up with a lot of lather on my hand which I rub on my face before beginning to face later.
Well, I could go with the scent part, but as for your other answer, let me avail myself the availability to say...............
