Friday:

British Tech w/ Bleue Extra (1)
Semogue 1530 bristle & badger
Cyril Salter French Vetiver SC
Irisch Moos AS
[Irisch Moos EdT]

I still don't know what to think about this brush: Sure, the quality is irreproachable, like any other Semogue; but the badger black hair is way too stiff. I have a Vulfix mixed hair brush and its bristles are not half as hard as this one!

Anyways, cheers everyone!
