Simpson Duke #3 Best
Bigelow Proraso cream
Edwin Jagger Barley 89
Gillette Dark Blue blade
Thayer's a/s wh splash

I realize it's old news to most, but the new formulation of Proraso is really good. I'd written off the old stuff as second-tier, both because of the detergents and because it never quite matched my favorite creams (Speick, T&H, etc.). This stuff is something else entirely, and really nice.
Regards,
Tim
