Rainy, stormy weather in the north of Spain. Last uses of these rich, complex scents like Tabac or Kasbah. Yesterday's shave saw the same gear with the sole exception of the soap, that I used the Eufros Kasbah. The Omega boar brush is a joy to use. If you use it for a few days in a row, it becomes as soft as silk but retains some lovely backbone. It won't be as quick to lather up as a badger or synthetic brush, but it costs a fraction and has its own good attributes. The Super Platinum reached its fifth use in perfect shape but I didn't wanna chance a bad shave in the sixth one. Great blades.
