  • Brush: Wald Nimbus Lagoon 29mm A1 Fan
  • Razor: The Cajun Blade ACR1
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock Super Stainless (Green) (5)
  • Lather: The Cajun Blade - The Cutter - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
  • Aftershave: The Cajun Blade - The Cutter Aftersauce - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


Today was my first shave with both The Cutter and with the ACR1 DE razor. I enjoyed both. The Cutter has a very nice open sea scent that has a wooden boat feel to it, and the ACR1 has a design that allows some control over blade angle while providing protection from the DE blade. I'm probably going to send this DE to u/sgrdddy to critique. He is much more familiar with analyzing safety razor designs than I am.

Is the Aftersauce that color or is the bottle colored?

He added color to the aftersauce. It doesn’t seem to matter on the skin, but I would prefer it if the bottle were colored to achieve that effect.

Today, I used a new set from DentonMajik. I really like Mark's base. This isn't a one note scent. It's supposed to be inspired by Acqua di Parma’s Colonia Oud.

The opening is vibrant and uplifting, led by sparkling Calabrian bergamot and juicy Italian orange. As the citrus settles, smooth oud rises to the surface, supported by warm amyris and a subtle touch of coriander spice. The dry down is where Colonial Oud earns its character — rich leather, creamy sandalwood, Atlas cedar, soft musk, and Indonesian patchouli leaf create a deep, masculine foundation that lingers with quiet confidence.

Have a good day.
