What soap/cream did you use today?

B&M Reserve Waves

It took me a while to get decent lather from Williams (Modern) when I was bowl lathering and now that I'm face lathering, I'm just about there. Getting the right amount of product loaded with enough hydration so that the lather doesn't either dissipate or dry out...that' been my challenge. With my current preference being vintage razors, I recognize the nostalgia veterans in the community have with using Williams.

You inspire me to hunt up the unscented puck……

That shave made me happy I have 2.3 eons worth.
Fearless even with the Blackbird loaded with a new Gillette Platinum. Money.

Skunk cabbage, funeral flowers, and deep animalic musk. — Interested? I thought you would be. That’s the scent pyramid for today’s aftershave, Ed. Pinaud’s classic monsterpiece, Lilac Vegetal. It’s been around since 1880, so you know it must be good, right? Think again. This lurid green juice is downright skanky. It’s like someone filled a filthy toilet bowl with fresh compost, planted a purple lilac bush in it, and then rubbed the rim with animal parts and pieces. It’s a hurler at first, no doubt, but then something miraculous happens. The stench dies down within a couple minutes, and what’s left is just a nice granny-style lilac. It’s got some legs, too. The musk carries the scent over to the next day, especially if you use it  as a full-body wash, as Pinaud originally intended. I’m not sure I dare wear this in public, but I don’t have to be back to the office for a couple weeks. That should be enough time to get all stunk up with Lilac Vegetal at home. Luckily, the only other person in this shack absolutely loves it.

So your slowdown of various soaps hasn’t stopped your assault on my wallet.  I find myself wanting to try the VEG now.  Great with-up.

I have some. You can have it.

My brother in law Brad didn’t like it and he passed on to me. I’ll keep it moving.
