    Merkur Futur
    Polsilver Super Iridium blade
    Vie - Long horse hair brush
    Martin de Candre brain bowl shave soap
    F&C Black Powder aftershave

    Planning on keeping it simple for my first shave with the MdC soap tomorrow. Everything else has been used together with success before. A quick face lather (couldnt wait) was impressive. It smells great and feels real slick to the touch.

    Terrific Thursday Shave
    I traded for Rhapsody, Cologne Russe and Fougerè Tonique recently and today was my first use of the two former. In a word, wow.
    Rhapsody features the usual optimal performance of B&M, plus a complex earthy, sweet herbal scent. It's not too much of anything, but it's pleasantly prominent. Cologne Russe is amazing, too. It starts citrusy and then becomes warm and comforting. My skin feels as good as it ever has, and I smell amazing. For me, these are both home runs.
    Prep: Kiehl's face wash
    Soap: B&M Rhapsody
    Brush: HIS lather monster
    Razor: der Vorschlaghammer
    Blade: Voskhod (2)
    AS: B&M Cologne Russe

    After this mini "international shaving journey" I ended up getting a very enjoyable BBS shave. The Bozzano Sensitive cream may rank as a :Animatedfrozensmily: instead of a :smiley freezing: because it's pretty cold! :)

    Slow Joe Relishing his obsession

    Truthfully, I have enjoyed the aqua velva so much I haven't tried the others yet. I intend to try Clubman in my next shave. I am looking forward to it as I have tried other Clubman scents and really enjoyed it.

    Good time to break into people's homes to find out their printers e mail address. Well, midnight is better but I needed a couple of hours to get to Sweden.
