What's new

What would be fitting?

My Gillette Double Ring has after quite a lot of trouble been restored to a shave ready state. Now I need to decide what to use for its first shave and I am leaning 2 ways I either go for an ultra luxury shave (all Blenheim Bouquet) or I go for a shave with items that were in use when this DR was first sold in 1904. I can only get as far as Williams Mug Soap though so are there any other good period products out there especially an After Shave? Should I only use a Gillette blade as well?
 
The Clubman company has been around since 1810, but I do not know when they started making after shaves or what is the original scent...

Edit* According to the clubman website Lilac Vegital was created for Napoleon III, so that would be in that same era.

Imperial Leather AS, which is in coles and stuff has been around for at least that long and is pretty good
