    Happy Thursday Everyone. Since I have finished tax season and moved 5 razors out of the den, I decided to reward myself with a new razor. I am looking forward to getting to know this razor further. Have a great day and take care. ​

    good morning gents.
    another fine classic shave.
    this tub of soap definitely lathers better than the waves for some reason.
    might round file the waves..time will tell.;)
    smooth 2 passer with the w-2 canadian gold rocket.
    classic splash to finish
    awesome
    have a fine day everyone

  10. Initial blast is harsh. Then a really nice lavender...sadly, doesn't last very long. Then it morphs into a sweet vanilla. It's an "ok" stank...not my favorite. Dr. Mrs. Primo doesn't hate it.

    Our friend Bill sent me this label to replace the horribly askew label that Simpson originally (and drunkenly) put on the brush. At the time, I reached out to them and they really didn’t care….besides offering to send me another label at my cost. I have not bought a nice Simpson product since, save for some cheap Trafalgars to bash the knots out from.
    Yes, the label is from a previous era of handles, but it is straight at least.

  13. I remember. Just busting chops. :)
  14. I can't overemphasize the importance of reading labels. I was in a hurry yesterday and purchased some paper trowels. They are absolutely useless.

    And I don’t trust stairs anymore because they’re always up to something and never properly labeled.

    Psst...can you keep a secret? I changed all the labels in my Bride's spice rack. She doesn't know anything yet, but the thyme is cumin.

    ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~Semogue TSN Final Edition 1/50~~Gillette New SC/Feather YSL M7 AS
    After work and after mowing the lawn, I needed a shower and a shave.
    The Gillette New SC is a beaut and the second-use Feather blade was tops.
    YSL M7 for the well-deserved finish.

    A new EdT to the den this week. I remember seeing a posting quite some time ago that said that Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica was a dupe of Azzaro Pour Homme. That surprised me as I thought it was an SVoriginal. Anyway, fast forward to me finding this Azzaro at Winners (Canadian TJ Maxx). I picked it up. I can see why the Felce isconsidered a dupe. It seems not quite as‘fresh’ as the SV, but very nice regardless.
