Monday
Gillette Sensor Excel
C&E Pure Badger brush
Palmolive stick

Tabac Blonde (EDP) sample. This is very nice. Starts off a bit like Creed Royal English Leather and Knize Ten but it settles to a great smoky (toasted?) vanilla after a while. Caron Pour Un Homme is lined-up, ready for tomorrow for more vanilla.

Monday

C&E BBB
Connaught Bay Rum Luxury Shave Cream
Merkur 1904/Wilkinson Classic
Dominica Lime Bay Rum

First go with Connaught Shave Cream, I love the mild bay rum scent which I find very similar to my chosen bay rum - Dominica Lime. A very nice shave, as always I will use this for a few more days before making a more definitive product statement.
Good shaving,

Gary

Monday Morning:

*-First time using items in BOLD

Hot Shower/Hot Towel
1962 Gillette Slim Adjustable (at 2)
BIC Platinum Chrome (Shave #1)
C&E BBB
Proraso Red
Pinaud Clubman AS Splash
TSD AS Milk
Preferred Stock

Pretty terrific shave today. Very impressed with Proraso Red and the BIC blade. I don't use my slim often as I have had problems getting nicks and cuts with it before. Not so today. The Clubman AS has a great scent after it's been on for a bit. Great way to start out the morning!
