I did a 3 pass shave because I just made more than enough lather and I just like this scent very much. On the second pass, the edge was slightly tuggy so I refreshed it on my pasted strop. Ah, that was much better. Lol! Got a microwave, but it disappeared on its own, and I attribute it to the slight tugging from the edge. I did get a nice comfortable and close shave.
I was going to hold off doing a headshave until tomorrow, butI decided to do it because I have 3 days of Turf. Also, I wanted more of that scent. Lol! Because I was just planning on doing a face shave, I just made enough or so I thought.

Obviously, my residual lather was not very voluminous, but still slick enough to get the job done. I used the Mühle R102 (R41) with a fresh Gillette Wilkinson Sword Blade. I only needed 2 instead of my usual 3 passes with touchups.
My posts have alum treatment had very little feedback. Splashing the matching aftershave and spraying the matching EdT had a hypnotic effect on me. My den smells wonderful too. Lol! Take care.
