Woo! First!

Great to have Dr Selby back in the fold. Much thanks to @SeanC

Bottle of Yorkshire Cologne to replace the Birsen Tobacco that I've got in at the moment. I'm not sure I like it. There's perhaps a bit of a sweatiness to the scent after a short while. I bought it during COVID when stocks of Turkish Cologne went very dry. Again, glad to have this back in the fold ... it's one I know I like.

Paul. Have you ever used the Akcay Tobacco? It's slightly different to the one you bought, it has a bit more talcum powder. I like it.

Just ordered myself a Shavemac brush. Decided on synthetic 24mm with 50mm loft. Beautiful looking brush. Now the wait begins. Hopefully arrive in 2 or so weeks.

Not yet ... I'll look it up. Cheers!

My absolutely superb LFC brush from our very own @gile under the name Highlander brushes. Far better than the misery delivered by LFC themselves this past season.

To say I am delighted would be an underestimation.

I have this. It's a sweet tobacco scent. I like it. Quite cheap when I bought it, too. Less than a tenner if I recall correctly for 100ml

Thanks to @Boycie83 I've got this awesome soap from The Gentleman's groom room. Maybe the best scented soap I've tried so far.

I can't date them. My fiancee would get jealous.

I believe late 1950s or 1960s for the red pack one and early 1950s (possibly a little older) for the white. Just based on old Imperial Leather adverts, going off their colour schemes and typefaces
