Greetings,


Early Morning Shave,


Last use of the Treet 7DP blade which have performed wonderfully throughout the week.The Indian & pakistani made blades i've shaved with have all gave socially acceptable shaves with no intermittent quality problems.Another good sharp blade that i should use more often.

Throughout the start of the new year i've started to add soft & hardware shaving items to my SOTD set ups that i've infrequently used.The frankenrazor is another item that i intend to use more often this year, paired together with the Treet 7DP resulted in very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Boots ~ Freshwood ASB.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling devine.

Enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Bowl/Scuttle:- Captain's Choice
Brush:- WCS Two-Tone Tall (Blue & White) Extra Dense Synth. 26/56mm knot
Soap/Cream:- Barrister & Mann ~ Nordost

Oh Man!..... What a real pisser.... I mean is soooo WARM tonight, feels about 32 degrees and I needed a shave without having the strong scent from the soap filled the whole bathroom like hell on a very warm summer night.

I really enjoy Barrister & Mann 'Nordost' not enough smoky scent from the soap, but, a very good smell of orange on a very warm summer night when you needed a shave so badly.

Finally got around to brewing up some of your tea tree aftershave. Great stuff! Also, if you like orange scented soap, you might try Stirling's Orange Chill. Careful you don't try to taste it, though. The lather smells that good.

View attachment 1055379

AV Musk is sadly underrated, most likely because it is so pronounced (and because it is a drugstore brand). A little goes a long way in adding a great finish to any shave.
