    Obsession For Men EDT

    Since I received this Lea Menthol cream it's hard for me to keep away from it. I love the rich, creamy lather, the scent is beautiful, and the menthol cooling is very enjoyable. OK, not as potent as Palmolive Menthol or Godrej Menthol Mist, but still more potent than potent enough. If you guys want to know about potent menthol, try this Diana Sport balsam! ;) :D

    Soap :: Williams Tonsorial Soap (Face Loaded)

    Kevin (Hanzo) was very generous to send me a puck of vintage Colgate soap and Williams tonsorial soap. In the fine fashion of Vintage Williams, the tonsorial was superb. I ran water over the puck and rubbed it all over my face, took the badger to it a got gobs of lather.

    Thanks, Kevin! I'm very grateful.

    Monday 26 March

    Arko shave stick
    Omega Travel Boar, face lather
    EJ89, with Rapira Platinum Lux (D1)
    Alcolado Glacial, and Arko Cool ASB

    A three pass DFS, still a bit of trouble on my jawline (as usual). Looks like it is an Arko day for me. Nice shave after a very long Sunday.
    Have a nice day.

    Monday's Shower and Shave

    Hot shower using the luxury of bar soap.

    Facial prep with Proraso glycerin.
    Day two for the Semouge boar lather duty. This brush is impressive even after the 2nd use.
    Menthol Monday choice Tet-A-Tet shave cream. :smiley freezing:.

    Razor choice today, Gillette Open Comb, with a unbranded blade. I had three comfortable passes from this combo.

    After the three passes a cold splash, RazoRock Alum, Thayer's Witch Hazel, and the finishing touch Tet-A-Tet balm.

    The :wave: were quite pleased with today's shave, gave this exceptional DFS a 10.

    "Comfort Shave" to coin a phrase.:D
    Vulfix - Gillette - MWF - Tiger
    Vulfix - Doesn't shead. After a couple of Simpsons, I like that in a brush.
    Gillette - Black handled SS. Very mild and easy.
    MWF - Hmmm, It seems sheep sweat is good for you.
    Luckly Tiger - It doesn't really have a scent. It doesn't have alcohol or menthol, face just feels good after. Interesting stuff.
