June 4 I just checked my Proraso container, and I ain't got no more! It is done gone! Gone Baby Gone! History! Worn slap out! It started out like a rooster and ended up like a feather duster! A fond memory...like the last few pinto beans scraped right outta the crock topped with chopped up raw onions, a smidgen of chow chow relish, and a couple bites of ham hock! I plan to dedicate a chapter in my shaving memoir to the ethereal shaves I experienced with this creamy goodness! It gave me more joy than Carter's got little pills. Babies across our great land were jealous of my smooth mug! I began the 3017 by loading this container with approximately 1.5 tubes of cream. I enjoy using Proraso, and it is definitely a candidate for repurchase. My next target is a nearly full container of Stirling Executive Man soap. I hope you Sultans, Princes, Emirs, and others are having a phantasmagorical week. Thanks for letting me ride along.
Are you trying to say that you 3017'd the Proraso? Because I am confused.... If so, then... Does the word "verbose" mean anything to you?
Tuesday, June 4 MdC Rose~~Simpson 90th Anniversary Astor~~1936 Gillette Aristocrat De Luxe/Feather~~Diptyque Oud Palao So, there's no way I am 3017'ing another tub of MdC. But this soap is gorgeous. One of the nicest rose scents I have ever smelt. Truly. Even better than the AoS Rose Absolute. Completed the shave with a beautiful Rose/Oud stank. I am smellin' good in the neighborhood.
In a word, yes. In another word, thank you. Oops. That was two words. Proraso is one of my favorite creams, especially when the lather is whipped up in my Aesop bowl. I bowl lather nearly every time I shave, and it has made a difference.
if you decide to buy more,all the proraso line have been reformulated,now called "super formula" on the tubs and tubes,now its just like the Proraso Single Edge line,absolutely excellent .
Thanks Gary. That is good to know. I purchased this cream a couple of years ago in either a food market or pharmacy in Italy. Cost was 4-5 euro a tube as I recall...pretty cool to find such a nice product locally. I'll be interested to try the new Single Edge line for sure.
I agree, I am surprised they call it pure and some over the top adjective + silver tip. In one paragraph I could experience the begging to the end of your Proraso tub along with the remnants of a good meal. Congratulations!
It is over and done, , the Razo Rock The Freedburg tub is now in the recycle bin. There was not enough for a whole shave so I supplemented it with some Proraso cream. Brought out some big guns for the seven gun salute, a Simpson Polo 10 and Mike Martinez 8/8 smiling razor. This week is smiling razor week. Now I will take a week or two form some variety and to seelct the next 3017 target.
I snuck a peak at that "Super Formula". I need to grt the Refreshing A.S., and, as I mentioned in a reply to your post, the Lime cologne.
