The old Harrods soap still has a good light cologne fragrance, and it makes great lather.

Cyril R. Salter «FrenchVetiver» shaving cream

A top performer and my number one vetiver cream for many years. The more pungent, dirty and grassy the better  

You should have tried Jabonman's Vetiver de Haiti when it was available as this was the most potent and dirtiest vetiver that I have ever tried.

Razor: 15/16 Wade & Butcher restored by Jason Underwood
Aftershave: Small Batch Shave tonic Winter Reserve
Brush: M&F 28mm 2XL Finest badger

Very happy with Jason’s new “magic polish” minimal scratch marks (from sanding) left on the blade and the new stains gave it enough pizazz that you don’t want to put them down. What also surprises me is that the scales are designed so well that you would have thought they came direct from the factory! Aside from the particular design I requested to be done these razors look OEM. It was an absolute excellent job! The M&F is still for sale but I took down the sale post because I wanted to use it. The knot on this brush is awesome, lots of backbone and very soft when wet...( if you say that’s what she said to this... I know a pharmacist that can help) great brush but the handle isn’t to my liking because of its stalky figure. FcSs soaps are excellent! The scents are very comfortable and lather is explosive! Post shave is also very nice leaving the skin soft and clean.

Excellent shave!
