Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant day.
A late but excellent shave today. Returned to Taylor of Old Bond Street and their excellent "Coconut" shaving cream. Nice, light tropical coconut scent scent and extremely slick lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "REM Cycle" Sweet Spot badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Timeless Razor TRBR38, and I finished Clubman "Tequila Tease" after shave splash and Tommy Bahama "St. Barts" EdT.
Hope you've had a great day.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Wonderful shave this morning. New soap / splash day with the arrival of Phoenix Shaving's new "The Watcher" yesterday. An homage to Yardley's "Black Label" line. Now I've never tried the original so I can't speak to its accuracy, but this has a nice, Old School vibe to it which is right in my wheelhouse. Nice, powdery, spicy, woody scent with extremely slick lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Bisbee" Sweet Spot badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the 50's Schick injector, and I finished the matching splash mixed with my personal blend of witch hazel tonic, hyaluronic acid serum & a few drops of ETHOS Reméde serum.
Hope you've had a great day.

Phoenix Shaving Dapper Doc’s
Rich Man shaving brush with an F2 Innovator Knot
Thiers Issard 889 Le Chasseur French Straight Razor | Carbon Steel | 6/8 Size | Extra Full Hollow Ground | Round Point | Bocote Wood Handle | Made in France
From the Phoenix website:
Doc Holiday was many things but one thing he was not was...a slob.
Holiday had rather refined tastes for a gunslinger of his time and known to be a rather snappy dresser, sharp in wit and style. Lilac & Fig, a classy scent reminiscent of Victorian times and something our outlaw hero Doc Holiday might have bought off the back of a stage coach that just arrived from back East. I envision Doc slapping on something similar before a long night of cards or an early playhouse performance at the Birdcage Theater in Tombstone , Az. You may smell like Lilac & Fig but you ain't no daisy!

I'm so jealous of that Ruby Red Creeper. I have the Lavender and Coconut, but Grapefruit is one of my all time favorite scents. Cheers!
