I was originally intending to try another Signature Soap today but my wife gave me permission to 'Tabac Up'. A rare opportunity indeed and not one to pass on.

I opted for the stick rather than the bowl and paired it with the dscosmetics 2 band. I originally found this brush a bit too hard and scritchy but it's broken in to a lovely brush and works very well with shave sticks. Tabac lather galore! Probably had enough for 5 passes from a single application.

I chased BBS and got it but with a fair amount of singing from the Alum. Nothing the Tabac balm couldn't sort out followed by an incredibly generous palm-full of Tabac EdP. Today, I am Tabac!
