I agree, I still have hard discs of the old Fine formulation and I prefer it to this new formula which I find worse than the old one

Clay Face
Honolulu, Hawaii
Wild Rose (Cyril R. Salter) sweet rose
Shave 2 ・ 157 g left

Early this morning, with the house still asleep, I shaved by the gentle glow of a night light. In its quiet glimmer, nuances of my shave emerged that are generally lost in the bright light of day – the slickness of the cream, its richness, and the efficiency of just one pass, enough to tame 98% of my beard. The scent was more interesting, too. Just as this rose seems to be headed off to granny-land, it pulls back. Not overly fragrant, certainly not fake, it’s a gentleman's rose and a very nice harbinger of a fresh fall day.
