ATT S2
Polsilver
Thater 4125/2
Tabac (sample)
Pitralon Classic

My first shave with Tabac thanks to @Rohleder who very kindly sent me a sample.
First off the scent. I can see why it polarizers opinion. I couldn't describe it. I would just say it's bearable. Thankfully it wasn't too strong throughout the shave.
Performance was good. It didn't take long to create a thick lather. Protection and glide seemed OK too. I will be using it on my next shave and see if it grows on me.

Finished off with a generous splash of Pitralon (king of aftershaves) and ADP Colonia.

Many thanks to James for sending the sample.

Enjoy your Sunday gents.

Cheers
Rob

I don't really know how the Schick Twin blade works, does one blade cut close and the other closer still, or as modern speil puts it, the first blade pulls the hair out for the second blade to cut?
What I do know is, it gives a very close, if somewhat boring shave.
The Wee Scot is calming down and beginning to show me its true character, how can such a diminutive brush generate and release so much lather?
Have a great Sunday.
