Klar Seifen Sport ~ Simpsons CL2 ~ Joseph Rodgers 6/8" ~ Alum ~ T&H Apsley Cologne

Lovely shave, couple of comments on the scents... Klar Sport smells like Rive Gauche, slightly less spice and slightly more florals but definitely that ballpark. Apsley smells of Terre d'Hermes, not sure I could tell the difference between it and D.R. Harris Windsor if blindfolded but the T&H seems to be stronger (Harris EdT only lasted a couple of hours on me whereas the T&H has been on 5+ and is still going strong.)

Face lather
Razor - Gillette Old
Blade - Gillette Rubie #2
Thayer's Cucumber and Aloe Vera

Sublime today. I used my Merkur 34C yesterday and the result was ok. Today, the result was in a different league; I'm always amazed at the consistently excellent shaves I get from a razor (that's) round about one hundred years old.

 
I find a modern handle on my 1924 (an iKon) renders it a heavy and beautifully efficient beast.
 
You're welcome Kevin. I knew you would like the scent.
 
It's good to see you back Stephen.
