I'm starting to tinker around with making my own aftershaves and pre-shaves using essential oils. My current aftershave blend is perfect for this Thanksgiving. It starts off with a refreshing Sweet Orange and Eucalyptus scent with a background of dark woodiness that settles out into a nice warm earthy, woody tone. I am thankful for vintage shave gear and homemade ingenuity.
Hope everyone is having a great week so far!
 
Wonderful Picture Chris, Please describe the Cypher, it looks very interesting

This is a limited edition soap and after shave from B&M based on a classic Chypre formula. I've only had the chance to use it once so can't really put my finger on the scent besides the essentials from the label. It's a wonderful natural yet sophisticated scent.

The performance of both the soap and after shave were outstanding. I believe this is a new soap formulation from B&M, so I'm looking forward to more scents.

I got a real authentic BBS shave, and have to attribute some of that to the protection and slickness of the B&M soap.

Thanks for the thumbs up on the picture.
