Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning. New soap day with the arrival of "Opulence Harbinger" shave soap & splash from Hendrix Classics & Co. This is one of the most strongly scented soaps / splashes that I've ever encountered. The splash is easily cologne strength, probably closer to EdT strength. Definitely a rager! Not sure what the individual scent notes are, but on the whole it reminds me a lot of "L'Homme" from Yves Saint Laurent. Great lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Reload" 2-Band Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Executive and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave splash.
Hope you have a great day.
