What soap/cream did you use today?

Czech & Speake Oxford and Cambridge shaving soap, which makes very good lather but has lost most of its scent over a few months, mainly of storage

I have tried Russian soap several times. At the moment I do not have a single can of Russian soap. I doubt very much about the ingredients that are in their composition. I think they are cheap Chinese products. There are simply no others here. I'll tell you more. In my collection there is not a single thing made in Russia at all (not even bowls and towels). Well , only Gillette blades ... But they can hardly be called Russian . They are made in my city. But the P&G plant has nothing to do with Russia.

Given the historical, cultural, intellectual, educational, technical, scientific, literary and artistic achievements of the Russian people throughout history, that is amongst the most disheartening posts encountered, EVER.  Wherever attended scholarly pursuits throughout life, Russian and Russian educated peers dominated. Little wonder the West is dying.

Danny. Agreed. Best literary works, painters, musicians, ballerinas, athletes. For a country that size [population].... , amazing. I work  with about 60 Russian scientists - and they work circles around our young American peers.

These Russian scientists now live in Russia? Or do they live and work in America?

Without being utterly churlish and gauche, Russians have reversed decline in the past...perhaps it time again, eh?  For one: China, like Germany, not your ally; they your future democidal invaders

Tavaresh, most live in Moscow and a small handful in St Pete. Moscow has changed greatly from my first visit in 1997. Great city - love the metro

Zingari Man Black Wood.

This is the first time I've seen this scent.  How do you like it?

Himalayan Heights (Meißner Tremonia) deodar cedar
Shave 18 ・ 78 g left

And so the Meißner Tremonia marathon continues with Himalayan Heights, a simple but splendid take on deodar cedar. This jar is five years old, and some of the scent has faded, but it’s still easy on the nose and makes a rich lather. Why this abiding interest in Meißner Tremonia lately? The other day I tallied up my holdings, and Meißner Tremonia came out on top. There were over 2½ kilos of this excellent brand on my shelves. A dense soap, it takes less than a gram to build a thick lather, so there’s enough here for at least eight more years. I thought I'd try to chip a few grams away, but man, this stuff hardly shrinks, even with a generous load of a hundred swirls. I hope you like reading about it as much as I like shaving with it.
