Razor: Gibbs #15 Clouds Brass Handle
Blade: Wizamet
Brush: Graydog Quilt
Soap: Dr Jon's Savannah Sunrise
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Stirling Peach
Fragrance: CK One
1st off I forgot to mention that the gentlemen known as primotenore and I had exchanged some frags samples. I sent him the older Terre D"Hermes Edt and he sent the Parfum to me to compare. He has a much more refined nose and descriptions than I. My take was the opening of them had the Parfum slightly less dirty citrus and more to the bright side but on dry down they were very similar. There has been discussion that the after 2015/16 EdT is weaker. I was curious and have confirmed that the replacement should be the Parfum to get the same effect.
Just an amazing shave with the Gibbs today. I had not tried it with the Brass aftermarket handle yet and wanted to try it. I like both the extra weight it gives as well as the slightly more handle length. It was a winner for sure and we are glass like smooth today. Took today off the 1508.5 Project on Steroids but back at it tomorrow. Topped with some Stirling Peach Splash and some CK One EdT. Have a tremendous day guys !
