DeLuxeShaving 8 Ball I received this sample soap from Anthony at Deluxe. No secret that I am and have been a fan of his soap base and the performance of this scent is great as per usual. If you are a citrus lover, the scent is a must have. The citrus has an almost effervescent quality as a lead with some very light, earthy notes in the background [vetiver perhaps?] and what seems a very subtle lavender along with light clove. A solid performer with great scent; something to remind us of the summer months as winter approaches.

My understanding is that it will be available in another couple of weeks.

Murray & Lanman Florida Water

Even though I use this razor with trepidation, I’ve never cut myself with it and it does shave quite well as evidenced by the DFS it just yielded.
