  2. gunpowder and spice for both.
    from a website..
    Gunpowder Spice is exactly what it sounds like, a mix between the classic spicy scent with the added aroma of freshly fired black powder. The smokiness of the black powder mixes well with the spices you remember from when your grandfather splashed it on.
  3. Thanks, Gary.

  4. I cracked the lid and smelled nothing but Brut in soap form. It is exactly what he set out to make and exactly what I wanted.
  5. One of the best vintage carbons I've tried.

    Carbon blades are like liverwurst: you may have to wrap your brain around trying one but once you do, and if you acquire a taste for it, you'll get the hankering.

  6. Which MSC is a Brut dupe? Vintage Faberge?

    I've been meaning to try that brand and a Brut clone would be a good place to start.

  7. Could be the "rust resisting" part helps them age better?

    I haven't seen these in double edge. But I have a whole bunch of single edge. Made to fit whichever Gem was around at the time. They aren't exactly the same shape though, maybe a patent issue? So they fit some, but not others.

    Be happy to share some if you want.

  9. I've never seen their single edge, yeah, we can work up a swap. I'll have plenty, as you can see.

    I can also generally suggest Blade Man, Sheffield, Taylor Made, and Rexalls. Have had pretty consistent good luck with them.

  11. Currently I’m waiting on 2 NIB bottles of Fabergé Brut 33 Musk splash on lotions as well as a NOS bottle of Fabergé Woodhue splash on lotion.

    Also these. I'm very doubtful but I have to know, y'know?

  13. Just received these in the mail today, some of the fellows use them and claim they work well and are fast drying also.
    They are made from 60% nylon and 40% Polyester and are not the orginal Japanese Salux.
    Never used these before for washing or exfoliating my skin!

  14. What is special about these versus other Microfiber options?
    Frijolero, cliffb599 and Ron R like this.
  15. Salux cloth has a different weave than microfiber and are longer in length for back scrubbing and will dry quickly for less chance of mildew to form as compared to a normal wash cloth that has taken to long to dry or any type of wash cloth that takes to long to dry (they are designed for personal hygiene) . I bought these because Salux is used by millions of folks around the world but is still relatively new to myself and others. I have a thread on another site and have had a few folks mention them so I bought them to try & thought I would share this cleaning cloth.

  16. Saw this on a site and decided, why not. For $8.00, it's worth a try............

  18. In hindsight, I wish I'd gone with the Red, but the price on the Green was very, very good. My brother-in-law is buying the second Green off me.

    Also have some Ach. Brito Moss (Musgo) on the way. Expected to buy the Ach. Brito Lavanda aftershave before I ever tried their soaps and creams, but that's how it works out sometimes. Needed $5 more for free shipping...

    Looking forward to trying them.

  19. I am fascinated with this juice. The vintage "Made in Bermuda" (pre-Hurricane; pre reformulation; pre-moving the manufacturing to the USA)
