    Very nice. Besides the obvious differences in sizes, do you notice a distinction between the two Simpson Chubbies (CH2&3), Clint?

    Thank you Jason. Both my CH3 brushes have the same fiber knot used in the Trafalgar brushes. So there is a difference in feel.

    Happy Tuesday. It is a rainy messy day here in the ATL. At least it will wash away some of the pollen blowing around. Another fantastic shave to start the day. I really could not ask for more. Take care and have a great day. ​

    That's one thing I love about rain-washes the spring/summer pollen off my car windows.

    After 3 months of continuous usage, the Fine soap is done. It was a pleasant focus with a great product.
    I’ll use a fave or two and then audition a few tubs for the next focus. To be honest, nothing else will be quick.

    It just occurred to me that we are collectively using up all our stuff.

    :eek:

    Using up? Making a dent at least…
    I’m down to 9 opened soaps, which is the fewest in years for me. I do have several unopened pucks as well, though.

    Same here, Jason. 3 open and about 2 dozen unopened.

    It's like the Ft. Knox of Tabac here in my neck o' the woods.

    Not in a particularly great state of mind, but the shave was---thankfully, outstanding.
    Hope you, my friends, are well. :)

    Tabac is a very good soap, Paul, and the scent is pleasant (to me). I consider it one of the 'established' soap brands, and I tend to prefer those.

    Here's my inventory of unopened soaps. It's not much compared to some here, but it's plenty for me. It's fun just using what I have and not having to worry about the next best thing.

    Kent (tallow) -12
    Martin de Candre Unscented - 1
    Mike's Natural Soaps Hungarian Lavender - 2
    Tabac Original (tallow) - 4 pucks + 6 shave sticks

    Hmmm.... unopened inventory?
    Mine-
    Palmolive shave stick (2)
    La Toja shave stick (1)
    MWF (tallow, 1)
    Fine Classic Fresh Vetiver (1)
    Fine Classic L'Orange Noir (1)
    Fendrihan Robusto (1)- Same base as the Fine Classics, but unfortuntely is a Tabac dupe for scent...
    I think that's it, but it is possible I'm missing something.

    I’m rolling with a couple of faves the next few days and then I’ll audition candidates for the next 3017. I’m pretty sure I’m going to go with one of my (few) artisan soaps and not another 3x milled puck.
    I’d consider using the Felce Aromatica everyday, focus or not, but I’d never want to go nose blind to it.

    Happy Wednesday! Whew this week is flying by very quickly. Another great shave this morning. This soap is " Done & Dusted". I have really enjoyed this soap and it is on my "Buy Again" list. I think I will pick one of my 2 menthol soaps or 1 menthol cream for the next run. Take care and have a great day. ​
