50% off sale by any chance?

Yes, managed to get it on the Flash Sale

Is that Alpha’s or an advert for the Emporium?

Steve from Alpha was running a 50% off flash sale

 

[ATG]

To be honest counting postage, currency conversion rate, and the slightly higher prices on Alpha's website it didn't quite worked out 50% off an Executive-Shaving price but nevertheless a saving is a saving. These days, every little thing counts......

I saw it, made the Claymore a bargain.

A few samples, Mitchell's, MdC fougere, musgo oak moss, some tallow Tabac and a couple of different mammoth samples . A few extras chucked in too

It's Boycie who's really to blame, he kindly threw the Wave in when I bought the Excalibur.

What does Dunhill smell like? I think the logotype is so classy. But I mainly associate the name with cigarettes. Is it a tobacco scent?

I have a old spray Dunhill aftershave, it doesn’t smell at all like tobacco to me. It’s quite a sweet smell and very distinctive as in I’ve never smelt anything similar. Maybe it’s age in the bottle has something to do with it?

Looks like a fake Tech with a fake Star handle, maybe just an odd pic?

It's not the best picture but it's the Personna Star razor. I think the Star razor was the Model 100.

Oh, that's what that is! So I was kinda right! Good stuff man, great shaver, some say even better than a Tech.
