Rooney Beehive Ivory Finest (24/50)
Eufros Vétiver de Haiti shaving soap (tallow) 
Wolfman WR2-SB 0.95/WRH2
Wilkinson London Bridge (17)
Guerlain Vétiver aftershave

I started to load my brush with the soap but realized immediately that the scent just isn't for me, so I switched to Cyril Salter Sandalwood cream instead. I'll have to pass the soap on to someone else.

Vetiver is awesome. How Is this particular version?

For me there was just too much of a dry straw note, different than the scent of the matching Guerlain aftershave.

Shout out to Jason Riegle of the razor company
A while back I bought a FaTip that was a bit mangled from the factory. It was the last one he had. After a what I would consider a typical slow response back from FaTip, Jason sent out another full razor, plus gave up a Gift card, plus he bought something from MY website.
Thanks for being a stand up guy.

First shave karve aluminum. 
D plate. Very comfortable and well fabricated razor.
