@Blackmass - R. - thankfully it seemed to get a bit better for you. If nothing else I hope it works as an aftershave for you. Just goes to show - noses, we all have them but subjectively - one man's poison etc. What's the other RR like? I
Yes as you say, like most things, scent is very subjective. The original Aventus is a controversial scent within its self any way, with the it varying between different batches etc.
It dried down very similar to the Platinum after a few hours and did last a long time. I just wasn't keen on the opening though.
I'm yet to give the XXX good test. I'll be trying it tomorrow night.
View attachment 24927 These landed today all the way from the U.S. with thanks to fellow fourm member @dodgy aka Martin for his generosity, I received a PM out of the blue a few weeks ago asking if I would like to try some vintage NOS blades after he saw a post from me asking someone about the Personna 74 blades he was using. I shall be getting stuck into these over the next few months. Thanks again Martin, top man.

Yes I was very lucky to have such a generous benefactor and have already started this morning with one of the Personna 74 blades, a blade I've been wanting to try for a while now. I will be as happy as a pig in mud hole for some time to come.Some outstanding blades there - nice work.

Hello Tom.. the metal tube is a pricy little bit of kit from PILS in Germany..they make very high end items. As I travel a lot for work I figured I would treat myself..bought it a while ago. No complaints. There DE is excellent too! Please don't think I am enabling here..@Shaverrific666 - where did you find the metal case for the shave stick?
