SOTD January 8 - January 14, 2024

Post by brothers »

Ahhhh! It's good to be back in the saddle again. =D>

This morning was courtesy of Tabac (the old original).
When this stick's gone in a year or two, it's gone, but I'll enjoy it in the meantime.

Wasn't supposed to shave until Wednesday as scheduled but I jumped the gun and enjoyed a remarkable brushless shave this morning with Caswell Massey ROS (rose) shaving cream. This is an outstanding product with or without a fragrance. The Rose is delightful. Top shelf as appropriate for the cream.

I've never tried C-M creams. They are out of stock at their site. Wondering if you have tried the Sandalwood, and what it compares to, scentwise?

I haven't tried their Sandlewood but there's a couple of shops here that carry some CM stuff. They never had the Ros so I got lucky when the CM website eventually had it in stock. I'll make a point of checking locally to see what's on the shelf.

Boellis Panama cream
Yaqi White synthetic brush
Colonial General razor
Schick Proline blade
B&M Spice aftershave

Another great shave with the General. It really is a flawless razor. I don’t see how it could have been designed any better.
BTW, the Proline is my least favorite AC blade. The Kai and Feather are better blades in my opinion.
Best regards,

Basil
