6 January, 2025

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Grooming Dept. and their excellent "Incense & Oud" shave soap. Wonderful scent and lather built with the Paladin "Falstaff" 2-Band Select Badger Brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '56 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Ariana & Evans "Incense & Oud" aftershave splash & Comme des Garcons "Avignon" EdT.

Hope you have a great day.
