This Mingoose razor ROCKS!!!! I haven't had something this close to a DFS in a while. 1.5 passes, and I was golden. The B20 is a beastly little blade.
The TFS DiVino soap just rules. No frills. No funny textures or tricks. Just solid performance and great post shave feel.
Now, on to the Myrsol! This is my first time using it on my face and not just smelling samples. Holy Moly! This is so up my alley. I can't tell if they are recreating a 50's vibe, or if that's just how outdated and weird it is. Either way, it's MY Bag, baby. This smells like Pure listerine, and makes my face feel like a baby. Outstanding.

9/10 today (Since i'm not crazy about the weight of the mingoose handle. I'm going to try my RR short Halo on this head.)

Love this razor handle, but of all my razors this is the most aggressive by far. I only ever need to use 1 pass. Unfortunately I nicked myself this morning (it has been a while) so might leave this bad boy to mow down some weekend stubble come Monday morning.
