    SSL - it’s the next tub closest to kill and I’ve managed to snag a replacement on 20.1 base so a good candidate to bring some summery vibes into autumn.

      SSL++;

      It was my AA soap two years in a row.

      RIP 20.1

        Iys probably my favourite scent and certainly one everyone in the family likes.

    • Brush: Zenith 506B MB (27 mm × 51 mm Manchurian badger)
    • Razor: Filarmónica 14 Doble Temple (8/8, extra full hollow, red scales)
    • Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
    • Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
    • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original

    For today’s edition of running through the 14 section of my den, I chose the venerable Fili 14. It’s really easy to understand why they are so popular.

    Big, elegant, soft as a feather, and butter smooth, you can just wipe the stubble of your face. So nice.

    • Brush: Maggard 24mm Synthetic
    • Razor: Gillette Tech (Z-4)
    • Blade: V12 Super Platinum (2)
    • Lather: Viking Shaving Soap - Norway - Soap
    • Post Shave: Old Spice - Hawkridge - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: Harry’s - Aftershave Balm
    • Fragrance: Barrister & Mann - Lavender, Interrupted - EdP

    I wonder if I reached for this soap knowing it lathers similarly to the soap I used yesterday. Load dry, add water sparingly, and it works great. Norway is interesting enough to keep around, and it’s the only soap I have which prominently features Clove.

    Monday, October 7, 2024: Monday


    The Russian Bear is now very sharp, but maybe not the most comfortable – but that might also be due to the general bad shape of my face. And I might have a slight reaction to the TFS aftershave (just like to their soap…). Anyways, I would have to test where this generally ok shave did go slightly wrong.

    Have a good evening!
