Hi Mark,
Preformance was very nice, easy to work with and tons of slik lather without much effort.
I like the scent directly from the tub. The final lather it self unfortunatly had not much scent in it. I was missing a bit the explosion of scent A&E or SV soaps are preforming during the lather process.
 
Saturday Shave

Preshave: Argan Oil Soap
Soap: Pannacrema Rossa
Brush: 30 mm Hulk Synbad
Razor: Karve D Plate with Gillette Goal
Spalsh: Hega Original
Balm: Bema Balm
EDT: Lidl Homme


Late shave today as working on my Kitchen all day.

The Blade was from a batch of unusual Gillette Blades and if the rest are like this one then I am in for a real treat , found the Goal sharp and smooth a lovely blade.

Thank you @Bogeyman and sorry it has taken me so long to try one !

Ganders Goat Soap w/Hop, Sage & Birch
Meissner Tremonia Strong & Scottish Rasierpaste
Yaqi Daffodil w/Cashmere Synthetic 24mm
Yaqi SE w/Windrose Darwin Handle
Cloud Super Stainless (2)
Meissner Tremonia Strong & Scottish Aftershave

After a day playing out in the garden with the incinerator going pretty much all day, it felt right to have a shave with something super-smokey.

Just the ticket!
 
Prep: Shower with Baxter’s of California Daily face scrub and PAA cube unscented.

Pre: PAA cube

Soap: Geo F. Trumper Coconut Oil Soap

Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia

Razor: Leaf Twig

Blade: Supermax

Post: Alum, Baxter’s of California Shave Tonic and Baxter’s aftershave balm.

Today I returned to my beloved Twig, my face still fairly lightly stubbled after a week with the Model T. As always, with no effort, regardless of the blade, brush or soap, it cut the lot down and left my face glass smooth with no sensitivity. In fact it was so good I didn’t need a shave when going out this evening to a restaurant. Normally with a cartridge or even some DE razors I need a light one pass shave in the evening after having shaved in the morning. Not today! Just a fab razor that I can’t fault.
