Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

And the hits just keep on coming! Another phenomenal shave today. Birthday shave and I returned to Martin de Candre and their excellent "Original" shave soap. Wonderful scent with notes of lavender, mint and rosemary with super thick and slick lather built with the Paladin "Somerset" 2-Band Select Badger brush. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Milord and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Pinaud "Clubman" aftershave lotion (decanted into an antique 19th century medicine bottle), talc and Dana "Canoe" EdC.

Hope you have a great day.
