I ordered this on 20th July whilst in Majorca on holiday. I was still on holiday when it was 1st delivered on the 26th. Today to my sheer delight it was re-delivered. Shame I'd already shaved.

As mistakenly mentioned in July acquisitions, a bottle of Meißner Tremonia Natural Bay Rum. (Quit livin' in the past, Ben!)

I received an acrylic brush/razor stand made by Jeff (wyzeOne), a fellow shaver at DFS.

Cheap but it's supposed to be a strong long lasting fougere

This dirty thing arrived today.
Even the case has antique dirt

It'll have a soak in the ultra sonic bath at the weekend

I took the pictures after I gave it a quick once over with Brasso wadding.

I've got to source some blades for it now.
Where do you guys busy your blades?

I doubt that would mean that I won't be buying any more soaps though!
It was a toss up between this and Tundra Arctica so that one will be next...

Of course. I never thought that for a second. Tundra Arctica has a stunning scent. I'm currently trying to find a matching cologne. Plans are afoot as we speak….

A tub of the Santa Maria Novella creama di barba from the store at the entrance to Piccadilly Arcade, the shop looks super and smells better due to the pot pourri. The Italian gentleman serving was as helpful as picking up leprosy so only tried a couple of colognes which I found on the weak side, completed my purchase and cleared off. [emoji52]
