SOTD: 15/xi/2014

DOUBLE DEUCE!

Mongoose B1 (58)
Jürgen Hempel Spiral (12)
Feather Professional (22)
Plisson Acetate Pearly Gray Synthetic
Barrister & Mann - Fougère Imperiale (15)
Barrister & Mann Tonique - Fougère Classique


This is the last use in the Feather Pro blade. The shave started a little tight but it still gave me a great shave. I just was wise enough not to push it on my ATG pass. I really just did a modified XTG instead.

Overall this was a nice shave that was brought up to the superb level by the scents and performance of both the soap and aftershave. Great job on both of these William.
