Thursday 13th of February

Razor: Fatip Piccolo
Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum
Brush: Omega 205
Cream: Dettol Fresh (citrus pine)
A/S: Adidas Ice Dive

The Dettol shaving cream is a bit of a difficult one to match with an aftershave, the pine note smells of Dettol and the lime makes it smell even more like a cleaning product. But the peppery grapefruit citrus of the Ice Dive work well. I think this will be the pairing until I run out of the cream.

SHAVE OF THE DAY_13-02-2025.jpg

Shave of the Day_13-02-2025

9/10 BBS

Razor - Lord L6
Blade - Derby Extra
Brush - Black Boar
Bowl - Old Green Ashtray
Soap - Savon de Marseille - Lotus Flower
EDP - Ard Al Zafaaran - Midnight Oud
Attar - Qadeem Cambodian Oud

Another good close scrape ; first time use with the cheapie Lord and not used Derby Blades for donkeys years ; got a bit of irritation that subsided tout de suite (probably because the Blades aren't that good)
Took a bit longer but that's grand.
Not used the French Lotus Flower soap before either but it's mega slick and smells divine.

The new UAE sourced Midnight Oud has garnered numerous compliments already; so that's good.

Me and The Dragon are going out tomorrow night with the tenor sax and the bucket for the homeless and looking forward to letting my 2' hair down lol !

So I'm a Happy Bunny - 9/10 BBS

The next razor in my rotation is a U.K. Gillette Aristocrat. I loaded this razor with a Personna Medical Prep blade. This razor is a wonderful vintage razor that looks as if it is brand new. Todayโ€™s brush is my Uomo da Vinci 290 Silvertip Badger. The da Vinci brush line does not appear very often on B&B but it is a good line of brushes. The 290 is a larger brush and always performs nicely. The TFS soap was on its 33rd use. The shave was perfect. Have a great day, folks.
