W&B 8/8 Barber's Use
C&E Finest*
Mystery soap**
Trumper's Limes Skin Food
Tabac edt
(* I took the C&E best handle and shoved a finest knot from Golden Nib in it, and it's a really nice piece of badger).
(** I thnk this is the vintage Yardley soap, flipped upside down in one of my Ikea tins, but I'm not 100% sure. The lather is wonderful, but the last hint of scent was gone, and I was in too much of a rush to investigate...)

Good morning. Monday:
EJ DE87 & Rooney w/IP
Omega 31020
Fitjar Lavender soap
Thayer's Lavender witch hazel
Harris Pink
CF Pre-shave as A/S
Atkinsons English Lavender Water
For those who like a green lavender scent- no sweetness here- the Fitjar Lavender is one to check out. It performs like the other Fitjar soaps- great glide with a tab less cushioning than the best English soaps, but far better than any other artisanal I've tried to date.

Good day Monday
Muhle R89 with Derby blade
Rooney 3/1 super
D.R. Harris Marlborough shave soap
J&J Purpose lotion
Royall Vetiver cologne
I've had the Marlborough for about a week, and every time I got a whiff of it I was reminded of another soap - but I couldn't put my finger on it. Today it dawned on me that Marlborough reminds me very much of GFT Coconut Oil shave soap. Anybody else take note of this?
