Vintage Shaver

Saturday AM 2018-01-06

Moss Anniversary Slate scuttle
Paladin Somerset Winston Churchill SE (28mm/55mm)
Acqua di Parma Colonia soft soap (original)
Delta Echo Ink Edition Feather AS-D2/UFO Colibri
Polsilver Super Iridium (1)
Acqua di Genova 1853 aftershave

Today I started an 8-day comparison trial of original Acqua di Parma Colonia soap and the more modern Acqua di Parma soap, during which I will alternate between them each day, using the same scuttle, brush, and razor with each. Today I used the original version (with the gold lid), which gave me a wonderful BBS shave, as always. The lather required moderate effort to produce rich, fragrant lather with excellent body and lubrication. I used aftershave, but it was obvious that the soap's skin care was quite good.

I have to say that I am disappointed with this soap. The scent is beautiful, no doubt, but my skin starts to feel a burning sensation by the third pass and the protection is only mediocre. No repurchase here.
Have a great day!

No markings.but looks to be a Cooper (with Barbasol type baseplate). Decent but my least favorite of the three I have.[Image: 51b07951b4346432f9ce61efec9ac417.jpg]

Man, this stuff is good! Where Bespoke #1 is dry woods, this is a green wood. Plus, this Personna is just chugging along![Image: 3bb2b5f12f644796dd113249920f2190.jpg]
