Wine Wednesday
I didn't need my sonic screwdriver to get a great shave today. Fireside yielded optimal lather over a thin layer of Shea Moisture creme to set up my stubble. Der Futur efficiently left my face clean and and smooth in three passes set on 5.5 with a Personna lab blue installed. I finished up with Krampert's Finest Acadian Spice Bay Rum and I'm feeling good.

The 8th shave on this GEM blade and I can definitely feel more resistance while it cuts (my Woosah) compared to the 2-shave Feather yesterday. However, the result of this shave was much better, especially on my neck. No irritation or blood at all today, which I can't say from the Feather blade on its first 2 uses.

SOTD - 12 DECEMBER 2016

Hello there:

Today I used the OSP soap again but it was another scent, the "Grapefruit Menthol". I have to say that it didn't satisfy my expectation due to a very tame aroma. It was very hard to detect any traces of grapefruit, it smell like simple soap.

I had the hope the scent will boost during loading and leathering but my hopes went down the drain very quickly. Any inkling of Grapefruit disappeared. One thing this soap will provide, coolness. The high amount of menthol will freeze your face when you lather in the face.

I would suggest to OSP to inverse the mixture of fragrance and menthol, more Grapefruit and less menthol. On the other hand, the performance of the soap is fantastic, similar to the Bay Rum which I love.

Here is a picture of the tools used for the shave.

If you notice, I used my ATT S2 with a new Gillette Platinum blade. After the second pass, I missed my oneBlade. I had grown accustomed to the OneBlade than the rest are no match to it.

Have a nice rest of the day.

Hi natmizer your experience with OSP today matches my own - excellent performer, very mild fragrance. I've passed on my thoughts to James the OSP.

This week I've been using Cella and it's been a great success everyday. The almond scent is soft so that you don't get bored sniffing the stuff everyday. I've managed to donut the soap as I can now see the bottom of the tub. I bought this soap 4 years ago and it's still performing like (almond) nuts.
