So today I reached for the Mergress which is always a favourite of mine, just love the weight and balance. Loaded with the ever smooth Voskhod and we are always good to go.
Today’s soap was new to me CBL Soaps - Barbershop and what a great soap it was! The scent is just about the best barbershop I have smelt in a long time, as good as B&M Seville just a tad less sweet with a bit of a nuttiness to it...I know that’s weird eh? Well that’s what I smell anyway and scents are always subjective but what isn’t is performance and this soap kills it in that department! Easy to lather and slick! Loaded too much and it pained me to let some go but I only had time for a 2 pass shave and quite a DFS it was!
Lovely scent, lovely shave and finished off with some Clubman! Oh yeah! Happy Monday and happy shaves all!
