Hello Lovely
I haven't used Lavanille is a while as I try to conserve the splash, but those days are over. I'm not going to avoid my favorite scent anymore. Hopefully, I'll be able to buy a new bottle soon. The soap performs great even though I'm spoiled by glissant. I went with my Gillette New LC on an iKon SE handle, and it's a great frankenrazor - the added weight of the handle made using light pressure easier, and I barely felt the blade as it reduced my stubble. The result was not as close as my Futur, but very enjoyable nonetheless.
Prep: Myrsol Emulsion
Soap: B-M Lavanille
Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
Razor: Gillette New LC on iKon SE
Blade: voskhod
AS: B-M Lavanille

I think you've inspired me to use my "New" on a Weber handle for the balance. Great SOTD!

I'm looking forward to hearing how it goes!

Route 66 Lavender Woods today. 20 seconds to load the HFD/TGN Silvertip. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Wilkinson Sword Light Brigade in the Gillette NEW SC. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Anucci Sport.

Another outstanding performance from 'El Monstruo', this time with Local Gent – Fields & Streams.. the Permasharp is, I feel, a little too much with the iKon, but everything went smoothly.. BBS, and ready for my final shift before Xmas...
