This morning shave was likely the last calm moment of the day. In a few hours a horde of three and four year olds will descend upon us to celebrate Djunior's birthday. Please send help ๐Ÿ˜…

  • Brush: Zenith B40 28mm Boar

  • Razor: C.V. Heljestrand MK 10 13/16 Half Hollow Square Point

  • Lather: Gentleman's Nod - Tusitala - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Rose - Toner

  • Aftershave: Gentleman's Nod - Tusitala - Aftershave

  • Fragrance: Gentleman's Nod - Tusitala - Parfum Extrait

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I don't see a lot of Gentleman's Nod used around here. The fragrance for Tusitala was created by a perfumer, and it shows. Lots of notes, but the scent is subtle and sophisticated. I like it a lot but think that the Parfum Extrait could be bolder. I used Brut yesterday so it could be that my nose has reverted to wanting mid-1960's scent strength.

  • Brush: Maggard 24mm Tuxedo Synthetic
  • Razor: Chiseled Face - Legacy Raw Titanium (#69)
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Egypt) (6)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Oro Valley - Soap
  • Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Delor de Treget - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Barrister & Mann - Lavanille - EdP

Really good shave. I lost track of how many passes I did, so it was either 3 or 4. Great smelling soap, and this blade continues to work well.
