Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Bolzano
Brush: Simpson's Ehsan
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: Tabac
A/S: Pre de Provence ASB
EDT: Floris Santal
I had a great shave today. This was my first time using a Bolzano blade. It is a very good blade but will not be replacing the Iridium as my go-to blade. I need a few more shaves with it to really form an opinion but, it is a sharp blade and obviously of high quality. I still prefer the Iridiums though. The PdP Balm followed by a spritz of Floris Santal was the perfect way to start the day.

Saturday Morning:
Hot Shower/Hot Towel/Proraso Glycerin Cleansing Bar
1966 Gillette TECH (Ball End)
Iridium Super (Shave #2)
C&E BBB
Proraso SC
Proraso A/S
Vaseline IRML Lotion
One of the smoothest shaves I've had in a while. The Proraso line is a wet shavers dream and one would be hard pressed to find a cream that performs better than this stuff. A+ all around and a great way to start out the weekend.

Bluebell is nice - I agree with your flower shop analogy. I love it when my fiancee wears it.woodsrider wrote:Thank you, Gordon, and good catch on the Bluebell. It's mainly my wife's, but I'll sneak a blast or so when the weather is warm. It's like walking into a flower shop...you can smell the flowers, various other flora, and the cut stems in the Bluebell.

Merkur 1904/06 DE
Swedish Gillette #2
D.R. Harris Pink a/s
Meehan Bay Rum
The Alraz cream/soft soap continues to wow. The lather is really uniquely dense, and I got an incredible shave today. Fantastic scent sequence: bay rum cream, then the rose-scented Pink, and then the Meehan Bay Rum, which has rosewater in it.
