    I got my Vector back from its travels today and it returned with a tub of Tallow & Steel, an artisan who was next on my list to try.
    I didn't quite nail it in, the lather was a bit thin but I think it's definitely a case of user error.
    Scent wise I like it a lot. I couldn't quite work it out from the tub, but once lathered it releases a wonderful spiced orange aroma.
    I can't wait to get the best out of this soap.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    If I want another tobacco-scented product, I need to make sure it isn't "ash-tray" tobacco.

    There are some nice ones Tim. I would get some samples from the decant shop. Sartorial, Enymion, and BB are my favorites. The only knock is performance. I layer the crap out of them by using the afs, balm, edt, and oil [ as a post balm] - and even then it is 5 hours. I do like castille and their orange blossum one too, but most people find them to fem. Youtube "sebastian" and Penhaligon's. A good overview of the complete line.

    July 30

    Razor - Feather DX
    Blade - [​IMG]
    Soap - Tabac
    Brush - Jayaruh #54
    Post - Alum

    I skipped Monday and landed on Tabac Tuesday! Next to last day of the month and I used the Feather DX w/ Pro blade again to take down two days growth. The JR54 and Tabac were perfect as always and two passes and some touch up brought a very near BBS to the result. Hard to beat the combination. Nice way to approach the end of the month.

    Have a great night and a better tomorrow!!
