Excellent shave. Not as much irritation on right jawline. The angle is much higher with Vintage Gillette TTO razors than modern razors. So to whoever told me this I thank you! Tunes was epic as well! 2 pass BBS or pretty close to it again. Not much burn if any from the aftershave! I do place this Gillette Aristocrat between a Gillette 40s style Super Speed and a Gillette Red Tip. Have a good day!​

The color saturation really draws you to the pic. A real eye-catching shot.

Excellent close to the work week, gentlemen. Photographs, text descriptions and commentaries were all spectacular. Thank you for your contributions. All are greatly appreciated.

I'm sure that SOTD this weekend will be home to an abundance of beauty. I can hardly wait.

I'll be seeing you, gents.

​

A fantastic shave! This razor is my first dive in the SE razor world and I'm really glad I followed the advices of a friend that point me to its direction. The price was also a good incentive as if I wasn't pleased with its performance the loss wouldn't be so great. I definitely recommend to anyone that is curious and never tried an SE razor to try this one.

The soap had its premiére today and it performed beautifully too. Great scent and lather. Very easy to lather and with a slickness and protection as the best soaps I have tried. Top notch. It's great though to experience the different interpretations of Fougère from different artisans. EUFROS fougère soap that I also have is more "fresh", as an explosion of green forest and not as floral as this LPL. I could say that for me, EUFROS it's a summer Fougère, and LPL a winter one.

Have a wonderful weekend friends!
