Georgetown Pottery G12 scuttle
Shavemac Butterscotch D01 2-Band Silvertip (26mm/54mm)
Williams Rose shaving soap (tallow)
Delta Echo Feather AS-D2/Triad Satin Aristocrat
Wilkinson Light Brigade (5)
Roger & Gallet L'Homme aftershave (vintage)

The old Williams soap has just a faint scent, but its lathering qualities and skin care were excellent. The aftershave fragrance was somewhat weaker than I expected.

Now then gents, first run out with the La Toja stick - on impulse buy as it was highly recommended by @Robyflexx...

La Toja stick face lathered with my RazorRock Barber Plissoft
Barbaros TR-1 on Custom Bulldog
Gillette Superthin [1]
La Toja AS
Beckham Instinct Sport EDT

Thank you @Robyflexx - this STICK rocks! Seriously thick and creamy lather erupts. massive amounts of cushion and slide. Love it. I think I will be pressing it into a bowl as I prefer to bowl lather - less messy!
Very faint La Toja scent, not strong at all... Need some La Toja EDT now!

 

[Robyflexx]

Right on Lee! I'm very happy to know it works to your liking. I agree the scent is a bit faint which is a shame because it's a rather nice clean fresh scent but performance alone makes up for it. Nice photo!

I was impressed with the stick, great bargain and a nice scent for me as well.

Does the EDT match the soap?

Thanks - I rushed the photo (my wife would laugh at me for such things!), but you get the idea. I could with a "backdrop" to hide the window frames...
