Day 77 November 1st Barbasol Floating Head w Astra SP (1) Omega Evo / Burl&Resin Asylum Colonia SS & AS Thayers I thought I’d use the splash sparingly to have it available throughout the focus…I underestimated. The splash will have a few days in it after the soap is done. I’ll probably get two days out of the soap bits. That would be Thurs/Fri…Not shaving Sat…I can start the Mikes focus on Sunday. Not sure who is in…Clint and Joseph for sure. Can’t remember who else. Have a great night all.
You're almost there, Jason. I'll join you fellers in the Mike's focus. I'll have to go back and look, but I think we agreed to pair it with Clubman AS and Tabac cologne.
I’m in for the Mike’s focus. I have roughly 60 grams or less of Mike’s Vetiver so that worked out nicely for the colder weather. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Have fun with your Mike’s, fellows! I will be enjoying my jar of Mike’s in rotation with many others. It turns out I really enjoy rotating through my stash! However, when I’m ready for my next 3017

Day 78 Barbasol Floating Head w Astra SP (2) Omega Pro / Resin Asylum Colonia combo Thayers After 3 months of the same product, I’m looking forward to tomorrow being the last day…regardless of how good the soap is. Have a great day all.
The weekday catchup. At the start of the week, I was frustrated as I still could not see the bottom of the tub. In the back left is an Iwasaki full hollow, in the front left is a Brian Brown bellied hollow and on the left is a JWest full wedge. Somehow my 2011 R41 did not make the picture. This week's brush theme was Simpson. On Friday, finally, the bottom of the tub of the TOBS was revealed. I think I have two or three shaves left. I do not have any Mike's soap left but I am thinking about my next target is Tabac. I want to bring back the memories of Piggly Wiggly.
Day 79 Barbasol Floating Head w Astra SP (3) Omega Evo / Burl&Resin Asylum Colonia SS & AS Thayers Tis done. I probably could have gotten another day out of the tub, but I just didn’t feel like it. I really have no idea how many shaves I got out of the soap overall, but it was well over a 100. I bought this combo from Joseph quite a few years ago now. A quality product to the end. Would I buy it again? Probably not. I have 3 other SV 4.3 pucks that I enjoy the scent of a little more. This was good, those are faves. Have a great day all.
Congrats Jason. Your comparison of Colonia to other SV products mirrors my opinion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Congrats Jason! I'll bring out my Mike's puck starting with the next shave. I'm sure everyone else will finish before me, so I need to get an early start.
Friday, November 3 AoS Unscented~~Semogue 2012 SE Mistura~~2011 Mühle R41/Weber Bulldog/Gillette Platinum~~Vintage Drakkar Noir There is just a hair remaining of this soap, so I'll finish it off tomorrow and start my Mike's 3017 Sunday. I have to say, that it's the great members on this forum---in particular, this thread, that keep me coming back to TSD.
I decided to go big and put this tub of TOBS out of my misery. Actaully the scent was very pleasant, quality lathers and it lasted a looong time. To ensure that this was the last shave a brought out the big guns, my Simpson Polo 12 and 8/8 Grim Butcher. It was a fitting end as the shave was epic. I will enjoy some variety next week and decided on the next target.
