Very nice shave tonight. Abysso has one of the coolest labels around and the scent is a definite cologne aquatic style to my nose. I happen to like those, so I enjoyed the shave. Lather was a little on the dry side on first pass, but I added some water before the second pass and absolutely nailed the sweet spot. Awesomely slick.
 
Simply FABULOUS shave tonight.
Took off a one day stubble with the Astra loaded into my trusty Tech razor.
The blade cut through the whiskers effortlessly and smoothly. INCREDIBLE!
Magnificent actually!! Finished it up with the great smelling Proraso Sandalwood AS. BTW: I do love Cella. It makes a shave a lot easier. And even better than the last one. Totally FANTASTIC!! I am pleased and face is quite SMOOTH now...:

Post & Aftershave

Excellent soap! Really nice scent, good creaminess and slickness. Loading directly for 20secs with quite a dry brush and then face lathering was a great feeling and pleasure.
Shave with razor paired with blade was perfectly smooth and comfortable. Did not feel tugging during the 3+1 passes. BBS mostly. Unexpected weeper on the chin. Post & Aftershave was great...especially the GentsGin. Very good shave. Rating 9/10
