Almost pulled the trigger on the Mike's too, but after reading that it's a rebranding of another company, I passed. How is the lavender scent?

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #314
eBarbershop Schick O Clone
Schick Twin Blade
CWR
Tabac AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #314 badger brush. I did two passes with the eBarbershop Schick O Clone Safety Razor with a Schick Twin Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

What did you think of the R4L?

I really like it Guy. It is nice fresh vetiver scent with citrus notes. It might be one of my favorite vetiver scents I have tried. I do wish the scent strength was a notch stronger

 

I agree. Not really a vetiver fan but like this one. Soap was a little light but my AS lasted pretty much the whole work day on me.

I am a vetiver junky. I like this one because it is bright and vibrant. He hit a winner with this scent.
