Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning! New soap / splash day with the arrival of "Oud Spice" from Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. I was a little hesitant in ordering this one as the thought of "Old Spice" combined with agar wood didn't sound like something that would work. But my misgivings were unfounded. Great scent! Shulton-era OS with a hint of smoky, leathery, woody oud which complements it nicely. Excellent lather built with the new Wild West Brushworks "Bisbee" Sweet Spot Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '69 Gillette Super 109, and I finished with the matching AS and Procter & Gamble "Old Spice" EdC.
Hope you have a great day.
