Pre: Proraso Crema Pre Barba
Razor: GEM OCMM
Brush: Wet Shaving Products -- Monarch SuperFine
Soap: Martin de Candre - Savon À Raser (55)
AS: Krampert's Finest Acadian Spice Bay Rum -- Hip Flask

Image

My current mood finds me preferring the OCMM over the other 2 razors in my top 3; the Streamline & Cobra. The OCMM boasts the best twist-to-open (TTO) mechanism ever made & I love the handle; perfect length & balance.

Bath House Spanish soap

Thayer's aftershave witch
Taylor Mr. Taylor cologne

Well, whaddya know? 28 degrees this morning when I woke up, so Mr. Taylor it is.

Bath House Spanish Fig & Nutmeg soap is great - thanks to Chris (Thalay Sagar) for drawing attention to it. Sadly, it seems to annoy my skin a bit, but then, lots of soaps do. The performance is really stellar, though.
