What soap/cream did you use today?

Caswell-Massey - Newport cream

Aquatic, not far off Cool Water by Davidoff, but with more shoreline.

"Caswell-Massey introduced Newport in 1890, named for the Rhode Island resort destination where the company was founded in 1752. America's first "seaside" cologne is known as an uncompromisingly refined, aristocratic, and elegant men's fragrance that remains distinctly American."



Someone's smiling bc Daddy is grilling burgers.

Yep, My Abby has to be smiling right beside me when I grill ANYTHING because she knows she gets her share too. Nice pic !

In France till early July and the only soap I brought….. after considerable deliberation….
My last full tub of Ethos Colonia in the F base.
Why? it has a fantastic, highly refreshing and well constructed/balanced scent that never gets old and offers incredible performance to boot.

Oh yeah, it’s been a minute.  This morning was a soap that showed up on my step unexpectedly.  Hoosier knew my love of Salters French Vetiver and as mine is not long for this world and he didn’t care for the lather, he shipped it on to me.  Included in the box was a tub of Hendricks Classics Emperor Oud,  one of le Pere Lucien Phoebus Lilas, and the Salters skanky goodness.  I tried LPL back when it was the rage and found a soap that seemed to defy logic in that it never bubbled because it wouldn’t lather so…….I chucked the soap and my guitar picks reside in the killer stainless container.  When they made a new base I just never tried them so this gift box was a treat and……LPL lathers just fine.  It’s not the glossy lather Hoosier seems partial to but it’s slick enough and dense enough that my whisker whacking was really nice.  The scent is floral but not feminine but I sure don’t get lilac from it.  Glad to know LPL is repping the French brand just fine now.  Thanks Hoosier!  

You're welcome buddy!  And i'm really thankful that LPL has found a good home.  You're right, that scent has nothing to do with lilacs.  To me, it was more akin to the dirt that the lilacs were growing in

BTW, once you try the HC&C, you should get that glossy-goodness lather

St. James Cedarwood & Clary Sage

This is a super nice cream, classy scent.  This has stayed absolutely moist and soft [7 tears old]!

I admit freely I am a Cedarwood nut. Glass jar makes it a black tie shave.

C U all tomorrow

I also have a jar of this that is about the same age and was wondering just the other day if it would still be good to use. Thanks for posting and it is a killer scent!
