Proraso Sandalwood after shave
I would normally have waited until this evening for my shave; but I was keen to try out my newly acquired Gillette No.88.
It is a very smooth, efficient operator indeed. Surprisingly hefty; so another one to let it take the weight. Very happy with this, as I got it off the bay for a fair price, where similar ones were/are going for £100-200.

It's a sad day for me today as I go back to work tomorrow having had a lovely week off and an awesome four night break in The Lake District with Mrs L
Noble Otter Monarch soap - it's excellent !
Lathers up a dream, smells divine and provides brilliant protection and glide. Post-shave feel is top notch too.
The 6C on the 5 plate isn't my default setting, but it works a treat (slower, shorter stokes required as I'm a clumsy clot) Luckily all went well.
I don't often use 4711 Aftershave as I tend to lean towards menthol/citrus scents, but it always performs well for me. It's a shame the scent doesn't hang around longer though.
With Mrs L out at a works do for the evening I could indulge in some Deep Purple . . .
And love the 4711+1 on the lake District and Deep Purple. Both fantastic.
Great picture Ulysses.
