Thu 25th SOTD
Soap Phoenix & Beau Spitfire
Brush Yaqi 26mm Mysterious Space Tuxedo
Razor Fatip OC Slant on Yaqi Handle
Blade KAI 3rd
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + Gatsby Splash
Excellent soap! Nice leathery tobacco scent and creamy slick lather! Love this (5.5/10 strength) masculine scent!
FOCS razor on the Yaqi handle feels better and paired with the blade gives a fantastic shave!! Crisply smooth and so comfortable for 3passes for a mostly bbs result. Good blade + good razor = Great combo!

Prep: Shower, Palmolive Olive Oil Soap
Soap: Ach Brito Mogno
Brush: Shaving Factory Bristle xs
Razor: Parker 22R Interceptor
Blade: Perma Sharp (3)
Post: Alum, Brut ASL, Bulldog Moisturiser

Well, I thought I'd better get a Mogno SOTD picture out of the way before all the late-to-the-party goalhangers turn this page into the shaving equivalent of Facebook on the kids' first day back in school ;)
As the Parker's become my regular driver it made sense to give the Perma Sharp a try with it. The blade definitely performs well with it, but I did get a little neck nick as it wasn't as smooth as yesterday. Alum soon sorted that, and the Brut was a bracing finish. Time to go and have a play and select another new blade to try, and retire the Perma Sharp - the rest of the tuck will remain the "keep" box though :giggle:

@Blademonkey , Hi Paul. Love it, love it, love it :love: I've pasted my review from when I first bought it below:
What is there to say about the Mogno? It's bath-soap sized, rectangular and comes in a cardboard box. @Paul L 's description of "pleasantly masculine" is apt -it's very pleasant and it is as basic as it comes.
I've tried it out both in an Arko "rub it on the face" way, and a lather off the puck method. I've come to the conclusion I'm not a bowl fan, and the Yaqi worked perfectly for both methods I used. This is without doubt one of the nicest face-feels I've had from a lather (albeit in my limited experience) and the ease with which this lathered up was incredible. Smooth as anything, great post-shave feel - incredible.
Without wishing to exaggerate or resort to hyperbole (oh, who am I kidding ;)), if it were not for the fact that we are all Design Divas and Scent Whores, the Mogno should be the best-selling soap out there. A soap that does the job this well, smells this good and costs under a fiver? No-brainer. It's now firmly in my rotation.
