Shave Secret preshave oil
Schwarzweisskersamik XL scuttle
Somerset Simpson Rover Pure (22/45)
Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet shaving soap (vintage)
Schick Krona
Wilkinson London Bridge (4)
Royall Lyme Toilet Lotion (vintage)
A great shave. The old Pen's soap is fantastic, an all-around true contender for best of the best. The LB blade is nicely broken in now, probably good for another half dozen shaves. And the Royall Lyme, while predominantly lime, has some earthy tones too. My wife isn't sure she likes it, but I certainly do, as an alternative to more "true" limes such as Trumper's and T&H.
