        Thanks! I used it again today. Lots of thought (I think) went into the weight and balance of this stainless one. Feels really good in-hand.

      I have the Tedalus Essence, which is a good shaver. But I must say that for all the cleverness of a magnetic fixation, I prefer the good old mechanical pinching.

    Tuesday, December 10, 2024

    • Brush: SBS Elyria - TNS v9 28mm badger
    • Razor: Chiseled Face - Titanium Legacy Razor
    • Blade: Bolzano - Superinox (3)
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Lavanille
    • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Lavanille Aftershave splash
    • Post Shave: Ginger’s Garden - Unscented Aftershave balm (+ menthol)
    • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Lavanille EdT

    My first shave with the Lavanille trifecta was great. I get much more vanilla in the splash and frag than I do in the soap. The combination is just lovely.

    I believe that I’m the first one here to have conquered death. Anyway, it was only a sample, so nothing to brag about.

    Have a good night!
