Needed a quick shave before a reception and then the orchestra. Only had a one and a half day beard so this is what I chose:
Razor: Pearl "The Sleek" SE (modified)
Blade: SiverMax SE (rebranded EuroMax for the Indian market)
Soap: Cella Crema Sapone Professionale (Buongiorno Sandalo)
Brush: Omega Puro Tasso black badger
Bowl: Fine Accoutrements
A/S: Clubman Classic Vanilla
Soaked the brush and bowl in a sink of hot water while I showered for a hot lather shave.....mmmmm.......

So let me get this straight. That razor is both a TTO and adjustable? Is there anything like that today?
The Rockwell T2 comes to mind. Also Vikings Blade and a few others.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning. Returned to Fine Accoutrements and their excellent Terre D'Hermès homage "L'Orange Noir" shave soap and splash. Great scent and fantastic lather built with the Paladin Shaving "PK-47" 2 Super Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '57 Gillette Red Tip and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave lotion and a spray of Hermes "Terre D'Hermès" EdT.
Hope you have a great day.

I can't tell you how much I miss the Fine Accoutrements tallow based soaps. Excellent performance, excellent scents, excellent price if you bought the refills (about $12.00/puck). Long lasting triple milled too. Sigh......
The aftershaves were a little rough in that they didn't contain any skin conditioners, but otherwise they were excellent too.
