Rooney Emillion 1 Porcelain Finest (24/51)
Acqua di Parma Colonia shaving soap (vintage)
Paradigm Titanium II
Gillette Platinum 'Swede' (5)
Acqua di Genova 1853 aftershave
Excellent. The Colonia scents always send my imagination soaring. I noted that the Titanium II provides more auditory feedback and more blade feel than the 17-4, although it seems to be a bit less aggressive; the 17-4 is closer to Wolfman razors in that aspect. The handle of the Titanium II also is more slippery when wet, and I needed to dry it off with a towel a couple times during the shave. Tomorrow I'll try the 17-4 with a different handle, since it came with an extra top plate to allow that.
