The soap...wow! I thought the Mogno was slickest but this lather slickness was as good too...very slick! It's very rich and creamy with a unique scent. Kinda heavy hearty rich scent to my nose.
The shave with this very light aluminum razor paired with the blade was incredibly good even better (slightly) than yesterday's brass handle. Super silky-smooth and incredible comfort for 3passes for a total BBS! Even the adam apple area stubborn whiskers are closely removed by this razor/blade combo which my other de razor/blades can't...wow! Rating 10/10!!
This is indeed a revelation for a possible vaccine against RAD😉😉!! If only the blades are cheaper...

Prep: PAA Ice Cube 2.0
Soap: Figaro Monsieur
Brush: Simpson 46 in Best
Razor: Mühle R89 Grande, #12
Blade: Treet New Steel, #3 (shimmed) and binned
Post: Alum -> hyaluronic acid -> Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla aftershave

Two passes only for CCS with a small patch of SAS on my lower neck. A little bit of feedback and some irritation on my neck (from both the soap and the razor). Just an okay shave overall. The Treet definitely lost something on this third outing. I thought it was off its past performance on my first pass and that was confirmed in the post-shave. Usable, but not as good as the previous two nights and leading to a CCS instead of DFS.
