Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning. New soap day with the Grooming Dept. "Chypre D'Ananas". Great scent with a huge pineapple blast right off the top. Grapefruit slides in just under that with cedar and oakmoss playing more supporting roles. Excellent lather built with the Shavemac 120 ST brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the 60's "Psycho Tech" and I finished with Myrsol "Agua De Limon" after shave splash and Paco Rabanne "1 Million" EdT.
Hope you have a great day.
