Nice fruity-boozy shave with one of my prettiest razors. I use it rarely because I want to preserve it. Who or what I'm preserving it far is not entirely clear, though 😅

That’s one of my favorite razors in your collection. I have one that does not have the excellent condition of yours but, like you, I don’t use it very often. When I return from my trip, that one will get some use.

Yeah it doesn't get much better in terms of collection pieces. So iconic 😍

Brush: Zenith B40 28mm Boar
Razor: J.A. Henckels Friodur 472 13/16" Full Hollow Square Point
Lather: Southern Witchcrafts - Druantia - Soap
Aftershave: Noble Otter - Monarch - Aftershave

2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.

Druantia is woodsy. I'll be outside most of the day in the crisp Massachusetts weather, so this was a perfect scent choice, imo. Today is the Thanksgiving holiday here in the states. While the history of this day is a little complicated, I look upon it as another opportunity to show some gratitude.

Brush: Maggard Razors 24mm Synthetic
Razor: Joseph Rogers & Sons Near Wedge (3)
Lather: La Maison du Savon de Marseille - Aloe Vera & Donkey Milk - Soap
Post Shave: Noble Otter - The Night Before - Aftershave
Post Shave: Nivea - Sensitive - Balm
Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Lavanille - EdP

I got this soap at a shop in Europe. The scent is quite nice, but the lather does not pass muster. Fortunately it does offer slickness, so it's 100% useable -- but the lather dissipates very quickly. For the final pass I added a bunch of water just to see what happens, and I think it actually helped keep the lather visible for longer.

Overall a pretty decent shave! This razor is feeling good.
