    Just an average everyday run of the mill morning shave:

    Music:
    Pink Floyd "The Dark Side of The Moon"

    Shower:
    Luxo Banho "Sandalwood" Soap
    American Crew "Tea Tree" Shampoo

    Shave:
    Proraso pre/post shave cream
    Merkur "FUTUR" DE in Chrome*
    Feather Blade (Day 1)
    D.R. Harris "Marlborough" Shave Cream**
    Omega Finest Badger Brush
    Proraso pre/post shave cream
    Osage Rub

    Cologne/EDT/After Shave
    Penhaligons "Duoro" Cologne

    Note:
    * D.R. Harris Marlborough Shaving Cream is a really good cream, but that scent is far too subtle for my liking. If it was a little bit more pronounced it would be a really good scent, but much like the Arlington, it's so subtle that it's almost unidentifiable. The D.R. Harris "Almond" is a fantastic scent, and not too subtle at all.

    ** After originally being a little dissapointed in the Merkur "FUTUR", I'm really starting to get the hang of it and as a result, I'm getting some really top quality shaves. This rivals my Merkur Slant in terms of BBS. I have it set at 3.0 and the resulting shaves are AWESOME!!! A little bit of Osage Rub after a FUTUR shave, and my face is all set for the Dog Days of Summer.
