SOTD: Saturday 1 - Friday 7 October 2022.

SOTD 07-Oct

Brush: Alpha UKWSS AP Gelousy Bulb
Soap: NO Logbook
Razor: Blackland Blackbird
Blade: 7 O'Clock SP (1)
Post: NO Logbook AS & EDP

That was good, normal NO performance so no shock there, but the scent is fantastic. They describe it as a woody fougere which frankly couldn't bloomin tell you. The main take away is that it, to my uninitiated nose, seems to share some DNA with firefighter (which I also like), so if you liked that you'll probably like this. As to the longevity of the EDP I can't yet tell but I'll update later.

Hope everyone has a grand day!

Cheers

Marc

Update: midday, still get the occasional whiff so longevity seems to be decent enough, happy with the purchase.

Soap Tabac
Brush Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia
Razor Fatip OC
Blade BiC Chrome Platinum 4th
Aftershave Clubman Whiskey Woods
An awesomely rich and slick lather from the soap! Somehow, the AS is just the right splash to match...
Another excellent razor and blade pairing! 3 very smooth comfortable efficient passes for a bbs-dfs finish...
 

Good start, matey!

For me, the Hawk worked best on long handles (like the Bulldog you have) and holding it further towards the end would weight and angle the head over just right.
 
I hope u recover soon.i recommend Diorolyte which is an off the counter product which is v good at restoring the body during episodes of vomiting.
 
A/S - OSP Orange and Patchouli
One of my OSP favourites T. - if you need an edt to sit harmoniously on top of the aftershave I'd recommend Hermes Eau d'Orange Verte - I don't know if you have tried it? Although the name gives little clue - the citrus opening settles down onto a bed of oakmoss and earthy, dark patchouli - it dovetails perfectly with the OSP. Ideal for summer day/evening or a situation that doesn't want your scent to project too much but still be there.

Cheers - I.
 
Friday

Final run for the Slim this week at least.

C&H Locale out again - I do have to try get my money's worth out of it, thanks to the pound!

Great brush producing a super lather from the Signature Valentia. - top drawer! This gave a 3-pass DFS with none of yesterday's blood spot issues appearing.

Have a good start for the weekend all.
