Monday:

Gillette 40s Super Speed / Gillette Platinum Plus (French)
Green Pond (D.R. Harris) Sandalwood Shave Cream
D.R. Harris Arlington Aftershave Milk (old form.)

The scent of the sandalwood shave cream lingers a bit. Surprisingly (to me), it mixes well with the Arlington fragrance.

Monday Night:

Gillette gold thick-handled Tech razor
Wilkinson Sword NOS UK-manufactured blade

Tryphon prototype black/pure badger brush
Tryphon Medici shaving soap

Thayer's Original Witch Hazel

Very smooth, close shave.
This is my second pure badger brush, and it is very different from my Rooney Pure. Nevertheless, these two brushes seem to produce an especially dense lather - more so that I seem to manage with my silvertip brushes.
