All new except the Masamune. I have the full spiced lime set with aftershave toner too. The brush is a Shedeleven Spalted Scottish Hawthorn Handle with an AP Shave Co G5C 26mm Fan from the one and only @Gairdner. It’s a lovely handle, a great feel to it, the slim base is an excellent fit for my gorilla mitts to hold and the light weight is excellent. This is my first G5C knot and I’ve got to say it’s a step up from the Synbad I have. It’s firmer, holds the lather well for a synthetic and feels a bit like a well broken in boar at times! A great piece from a true gent! Straight to the top of my brushes so much so I will be offloading more soon!
The spiced lime is a delight, a somewhat mature dark lime zest and with the added oakmoss gives it an dry earthy, almost wood and leather undertone to my untrained nose! The lather is easy to produce and thick and slick, and the splashes just turn it up a notch!
