A wet and stormy night in Perth as winter comes to an end. Thus, I reached for the warm and comforting Squadron Group Captain's Blend. The Rudy Vey Cobalt Shavemac brush (aka The Soap Destroyer) whipped up storm of lather, and a memorable shave ensued.

The Boellis Panama 1924 scent was a lovely way to finish off.

After a great Shave yesterday with an E2/ fresh Dutch Schick, I was rather concerned about today as the blade in use was on its 7th outing. However though no match in the smoothness stakes, I am more than happy with the overall quality of the finished Shave. Might round of this rotation with something special , see how I feel in the morning as I am out tonight with youngsters from my coaching group.

A recent raffle win arrived today with lots of Stirling Soap Company Sharp Dressed Man products.

The scent is subtle but powerful. A real statement.

The blade has had its last use but I have a BBS finish and my skin is silky soft smooth.
