    Thanks brother! Travis was kind enough to include a huge sample of Spicy Vetiver when i ordered the Amyris, it is a very peppery Vetiver and can understand why you would use it sparangly although this soap is firm enough to have excellent longevity.

    Pure class with that setup Steve! That Ruby Red Creeper sounds like a awesome mix of Grapefruit & cooling agent, THB takes the cake when it comes to presentation.

    The Brandy Clubman is much too sweet and fruity IMO and not what you would expect from the name. Whiskey Woods is my favorite of the new Pinaud aftershaves, it does change a bit over time so keep that in mind Paul in case you dont care for the innitial scent.

    That is a Wilkenson Sword Classic razor, I believe.

    I think they are one of the coolest looking DE tools ever created. I should get myself one sometime.

    Great shave!

    Cold Water Rinse
    Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar
    1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher
    Vintage Gem Cutlery SE
    CWR
    Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar brush. I did two passes with the 1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher Lather Catcher razor with a Vintage Gem Cutlery SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    4AC1366B-BE9B-4037-A672-9AAA6B0FBA56.jpeg Sunday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Bic
    Hamol SC
    Prep ASB
    Krampert’s Frostbite AS Splash

    Quite honestly I’m not one iota impressed with these Bic blades - in fact I might even throw this one out tomorrow and change it up to either a Wilkinson or a Minora because it’s pretty rough. The Hamol is a very soothing cream but thanks to this blade I had a bad case of razor burn all over my face, so thank goodness for the Prep and the Krampert’s Frostbite aftershave which got rid of it really fast. I’d rate this shave as a DFS but no better.

    What does that mean-that it changes over time? A little less Whiskey and more Woods?

    I had a change of plans for the shave this morning. Used Mennen Skim Bracer A.S. instead of Clubman Reserve Gent's Gin. My sister is coming this morning to get her cats and she is a recovering alcoholic-goes to AA meetings. The last thing I want when I'm around her is for her to smell alcohol on me. Course there's "alcohol" with most aftershaves, but the gin really comes out on the Clubman Reserve. I'll have the Gent's Gin out later this week.
