Hello, gentlemen
ATT M2 with a Voskhod blade
Vulfix The Grossvenor, pure badger
DR Harris rose scent
Pitralon Swiss
Wonderful scent and very good performance with just a knob (pea size). This shaving cream is my very recent finding. And after five shaves with it... I'm loving it.

Windrose
Polsilver Super Iridium (1)
Razorock Plissoft
Proraso red
Hema Shea Butter ASB

A fine headshave once again.
My first headshave with the Plissoft.
It is a very nice brush to use on the scalp, especially when the lather is still nice and warm.

A smooth head was the only possible outcome.

Incredible, I have tried these samples and I must say that it is overwhelming the soap and lotion, it is exactly the same aroma of a muffled Cohíba soaked in a good cognac. I have wanted to distinguish the scents individually but I see that it is a harmonious blend of both.
On the other hand this soap foam with just a few drops of water, its aroma lingered for a long time, being moderate.
In short an exquisite shave and with very satisfactory results.
You know if you are brandy and pure, this is your soap.
