PDP No 63 is my favorite scent of all of my soaps. And one of the least expensive. The matching balm works better than Nivea and the matching EDT is long lasting. All are reasonably priced. It will always be in my rotation.
What are you unpacking/ opening today, show pics or video, we love pics

not seen those ones before
They were made in Mostochlegmash (Rapira, Voskhod, Ladas factory) but from what I've read only in 2012 and for export to the UAE market. People seem to rank them either on par or slightly above the Rapira Platinum Lux, so figured they were worth trying out.
Hubba hubba
PAA CaD via a trade with a fellow B&Ber came today. My wife said "that smells like my Dad". Yep, he uses Barbasol.
Also first use of one of the 100 Schick Super Stainless that came yesterday
A mail call in four parts. USPS finally unloaded.
Picked up these Junior Preps on the cheap, mostly got display purposes.

Same. My favourite scent out of about 60 soaps and creams.
Stuff lasts forever too.
It’s seriously great stuff.
Get the balm too. It’s great.
Only quad milled soap I know of. It is hard as a rock but lathers very well.
It took me a second to realize what this razor was -- a "Psycho Tech," right? The lack of that characteristic chain and key ring on the end of the key threw me off and I was wondering what that even was. I guess these are pretty rare! That must be a rewarding find.
Correct! Gillette Psycho Tech with no date code (NDC).l
Not as much unpacking than browsing the local antique store aisle and grabbing a few thing for under $20 total, probably over paid for it but oh well I had fun. the Gillette thin blade box was open but full, the other 3 have 2 or 3 blades left in each of them. The tiny travel Gillette razor was at $10, my first vintage razor unfortunately not in its box. Many straight razor but only 2 Safety razor seen, a few more single edge razor.
Those Travel Techs are neat. I picked up one at a garage sale cheap. I don’t shave with the short handle much but I use it quite a bit with one of my regular handles.
I decided I wanted a gold tone postwar Tech to match my silver one:
Not a bad find! Just a couple scratches on the cap:
I had also just picked up a spare cap with the diamond/arrow logo so as to make the match better:
And voila! We have a match:
I'm really happy with the results.

Love it. The gold-tone post-war Tech is one of my favorite razors. I find that most people around here shy away from the gold-tone razors; I know the plating was very thin, but if you take good care of it, it holds up really well. I just like the way it looks, to be honest. Somehow seems more “old school” that way.
Anyway, good score.
