Really sorry about the truck Dave.  Undecided   At least you have a good place to come home to.  -- About as good as it gets after a morning like that.

Bummer about the unexpected car trouble. Pizza and a delivery almost makes up for it...Hows the Club De Nuit smell?
Thanks Chris and after 1 sniff it is yummy with a wife approval. More when I actually use it.

Thanks Mike and yes, this was little more than an annoying bump in the road of life. Just a frustration we've all had at one point or another and it's done and gone.  Happy2

Gillette 50+ or Older Focus Week
Friday January 15, 2021
Razor: 1922 Gillette New Improved
Blade: Gillette Spoiler (4)
Brush: Stirling Boar
Soap: Lakewood SOCP (1508.5 Project)
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Barbasol Pacific Rush
Fragrance: Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man

So shaking yesterday's inconveniences off and back to a great shave and an early one at 3:30. That's right you aren't seeing things I have the SOCP 1508.5 going today for a 2nd day in a row. Reason being a young member of our Congregation wanted a zoom shave tomorrow afternoon so he can be shown how to use the stuff I gifted him which included a Stirling soap and splash. I wanted to also use a Stirling soap so he see's what to look for in lather as we do it together. That frees up my next two days after today for variety before we get back to the SOCP on Monday.  This time the razor is a new to me New Improved from 1922 and it was a stellar shave with the 4th use on the Gillette Spoiler blade. The Stirling boar still shed a single hair and feels rough even after all the shaves with it. The Oumo boar is a dream compared to this one which may be on the blocks for a pif or gift to someone with more patience than me. Topped off with some Barbasol Pacific Rush and the new arrival yesterday Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man.................................man is that a mouthful. It's a great scent which from the website reads as:

a Woody Spicy fragrance for men. Club de Nuit Intense Man was launched in 2015. Top notes are Lemon, Pineapple, Black Currant, Bergamot and Apple; middle notes are Birch, Jasmine and Rose; base notes are Musk, Ambergris, Patchouli and Vanilla.

That's what I get and will see how longevity is and what the dry down is like today. Have a great day Guys and Gals !!!

Nice Dave!

Do you find the scent of Intense Man similar to Creed Aventus? If I remember correctly, many folks do.

I get the lemon and pineapple on the front end and hen dry down is the base notes mixed as described. Scent is nice but not much sillage or projection to me. It does last on clothes and my arm that I can sniff and still get it now if holding up to my nose.
