    I hope you were aware of the cartel recruitment process, unlike me.

    I only use it in the morning. I have found that if I use the right amount it's fully absorbed by the time I get to work. I agree I am not a fan of the scent which is why I went with a light lavender citrus scent which dissipates fairly quickly. I have found that it seems to make the AS scent last longer.

    I was not, in fact! I just started talking about blades and mentioned a couple of brands and then I started getting replies about the cartel and how I was so malleable to their plans. It was pretty funny. I got a sampler pack from tryablade and didn't know that most of them were Russian. Oh well. We were both just nabbed from the street of blade ignorance!

    It's very similar to a recruitment technique the British navy used way back, that resulted in tankards having glass bottoms.

    Glad you are having great shaves! I don't see a problem with mixing up the scents, so long as they perform equally well.
