Tommy, I LOVE it.....not for an aftershave but for the shave the scent strength is great and an authentic birch root smell. Happy to shoot a sample to you, just say the word  Happy2
Only if I can reciprocate with the macduffs Rose Gold?

Razor: Schick "J" Hydromagic 500 Gold

Brush: Graydog Quilt/Brown Synthetic
Soap: Klars ??
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: CHH Tobacco
Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,417

SOAP: I'm embarassed to say I've had this sample from someone for so long I can't remember who sent it to me (If you are reading this, please let me know) I'm nearly certain that it was Klars. it has a fresh clean scent and gave a great lather that I may have over hydrated but was still a marvelous lather and shave. From the small amount put into the bowl I had enough left after the shave to shave 3 Sherpas and their Yak. Great stuff !

RAZOR/BLADES:
So I thought it cool that the blades that come with the Hydromagic 500 Gold were....Gold colored and so gave them a try. VERY tuggy the 1st pass but got thru it and was hoping pass 2 would be better after I just stropped it on my face doing pass 1......NOPE. Switched it out for a vintage Schick twin blade and on the 1st storke it was AMAZING and completed a shave that was for the ages.

Have a tremendous day Everyone !!

Soap: Gillette Shave Cream

Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,421

Well the Humphrey's is gone and t replace I have regular Thayers Witch Hazel and this Eucaliptino 70 which will be the most recurring one. Nice stuff. Also NICE stuff is the SC which was selected due to a reminder from bayourider in his sotd as to how good this shave cream is. Had a few razors come in with a group buy to get a couple Good Will razors and thought I'd fall off the wagon of SE month and try the Millord which came in as an extra. Nice efficient but mild shaver. Don't see them much in the SOTD pics or talked about. Haven't seen Paul mrdoug much and wasthinking about him and hoping he and his are well. Have a great day Everyone !
