Pride, the third and most recent offering from The Seven Collection from West of Olympia was an absolute joy to use, everything about it, scent, performance and post was outstanding.

Superb match of blade and razor with the GSB in an Old Type and I'm really enjoying using the razor now I think I've got a better angle dialled in from the first few times I used the razor.

Cella aftershave

Beautiful morning shave. Got one white boxed platinum on trial. Not as sharp as dark blue boxed one nor smooth as new blue one. Somewhere in between of them. Mwf slick as always with great postshave. Cella aftershave to finish in style.

Today my cheap Ying Jili razor arrived. It felt a bit more agressive then my Fatip and Wilkinson razors but the shave was good.

DFS if I say so myself. Good fragrance from my superlather and astringent.
Nice easy 2 pass shave with a couple of stings under chin from Alum block, maybe a bit too confident? BBS skin though. A dollop of Chanel balm and a splash of Superdrug A/S
Have a great evening all
