Hi all,

I picked up a Cigar by Remy Latour during the summer at either TJ Maxx or Marshall's (can't remember which)....I think I paid less than $10.

I've used it probably 2-3 times. I put it away thinking that it would be a great cold weather fragrance and will have to try it on the next cold morning.

I've seen this a few times at the stores but never paid it any mind since I had a bottle.

Today I picked up my first tub of Taylor shaving cream. I bought the Sandalwood (the shop I went to only sells Lavender and Sandalwood and I don't know of any other in the Netherlands that sells any). I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to shave with it but I couldn't stand it so I played around with it for a while, making lather etc.. Looked good, but it's a bit difficult/new to determine how much to use (from a tube I know how much to squeeze out of) ...

Today:
Gilette with wilkinson blades
Proraso pre/post
Palmolive cream
Omega brush

I would like to know what 'Cigar' cologne smells like if you can describe it? Surely it doesn't smell like an old cigar (yuk).........I'm curious.

I get very close shaves with Charles' shave sticks. No nicks either.

Shower: C&E Nomad bodywash (used as shampoo also), Baxters conditioner, Provence Sante' Verlaine facial scrub

Shave:
Merkur Futur with Feather blade
Savile Row Super Badger
Taylors Shaving Shop Cream

First time using the Musgo aftershave - I am mighty impressed. Is there a more masculine scent out there? I don't think so.

a nice hot shower, ahhhhh!
my great hot prep
Edwin Jagger brush
Dovo straight razor
Aramis shaving soap
Aramis after-shave balm
Aramis stick deodorant
Aramis eau de toilette

Geez, I never realized Aramis soap gave such a terrific lather, and that you don't need more than 6 skims to give enough for 2 guys to shave. Also, I like the Aramis scent a lot so this stuff is really up my ally!
