Mastro Livi CarboInox, 6/8 Full Hollow, Barber's Notch
This month I brought with me my Mastro Livi CarboInox straight razor. I love this razor and not just for its beautiful and stunning appearance: a san mai blade made of Mastro Livi blue carbon damascus steel in the middle and gold stainless steel in the outside layers. While I was on the go, I stopped by a gas station and I entered the nearby store and, while I was taking a look at the shelves, I saw a bottle it reminded me of my childwood when my aunt used sometimes to buy me what you would now call a "vintage aftershave": Brut Original. I could not resist the temptation: I had open the bottle, smell it and buy it. I must say the fragrance is still the same and, not just because of the memories it gave me, but I really like and, as an aftershave, it is not so bad. It definitely is now part of my aftershave rotation. As for the soap, my shaving soap continues to amaze me and I really love shaving with it, in particular for the post-shave sensation it gives to my skin: round and smooth, a velvety touch. Memorable shave!​
