Second use of this LE Eufros for "Foroafeitado", which has a lovely citrus and floral scent. It smells of Spring. If you like florals this soap is a must. Manuel perhaps has a few left and there's a chance that you may contact him and get one of these, you won't regret it.
The brush didn't shine at such high level, though. Perhaps I had too much of a high expectaction put on this little one and to be honest, so far it looked like she was doing well, but with the time she's been in use already (nearly a month) I actually expected it to be already broken-in, which is not the case. I still feel a tad more exfoliation that I would like to. I hope it improves that little bit that is still left in the future. I liked the idea of a short lofted boar brush and wouldn't like to have to disregard it.

New LC vs Rockwell 6s
This one was not as close as the match with the Futur. The Rockwell is much better than the Gillette New LC, imho. It proved to be smoother, more comfortable and efficient. No irritation or weepers on either side. Sudsy Soapery Delor de Treget is amazing soap and a great scent. Santal Auster pairs nicely and left my skin feeling great.
Prep: Chattilon Lux butter
Soap: Sudsy Soapery Delor de Treget
Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
Razors: Rockwell 6s R6, Gillette New LC
Blades: voskhod
AS: Chatillon Lux Santal Auster

Wonderful shave this morning. I love the scent of Roam and this AS compliments it nicely. Three passes this morning, mostly BBS but a few slightly missed areas so we'll call it a DFS. It was a nice day to start the morning. Have a great day folks!
