What soap/cream did you use today?

Grooming Department L'Avventura

I have a handful of pucks I will never be without. And this is one - great performance, great scent, great post, and love the packaging. In the Tuscan region for 10 days - she is the only tub I brought. The TSA idiot tried to confiscate at the gate. I guess he thought a 60 year old white guy was smuggling C4 on the plane? I went grouchy old man mode and convinced him it was not gel/liquid.... .in the meantime, they missed the razor blades in my dop kit. WTH.

Have a good week boys

Tommy,

Do not be afraid: the NSA has intercepted your posting and a SEAL6 strike team is actively tracking you down for rendition. 

Enjoy your holiday...until the middle of night flashbangs explode...haha.

Never heard of this one.  But you have a most amazing collection.

Many thanks , sir !

While I've not had an TSA issues with L'Avventura, I'm of the impression that with time the scent keeps getting stronger, almost funkier and vegetal.  Not sure if I like it or whether the soap might be beginning to go bad.  Any experience like that? 

And, as to TSA and blades, yesterday, I went through in New Orleans with two packs of King C Gillette blades in my carryon.  I'd bought them at CVS on my trip and while they're not ever going to be my favorite blades, I was surprised that TSA didn't pick them up because I was expecting to having to discard them.

Today used Grooming Dept Angel. All summer I found I didn't want to use it but now that the weather has turned cool, it again entices.

I haven’t had the good experiences everyone else shares with Grooming Department but I sure can appreciate your TSA experience!  Hahaha.  Would have loved to see the vid of that one.  A wet shaver going spider-monkey on TSA would be great.  Shoot, they might already have the vid loaded for training.  Glad they missed your blades and I know they can’t be perfect but come on!  They almost confiscated your shave soap and they did take from me a 6 inch crescent wrench I used to travel with because it was a weapon!  Those adjustable wrenches are wicked weapons.  I went a but “old man” on him asking what he thought I might do with it?  Loosen some seats until they flew me to Havana?  A month later my daughter flew with a 10  inch chef knife she wanted me to rehandle.  It was in her carry one and sailed right through.  But soap?  Oh no….

Funny Lip! yes, soap they were going to confiscate. And they miss blades and knives.
