Both pictures fantastic,mkiraly!
I never used Pinaud Classic Vanilla.Is it worth to buy?

Thanks a lot witeq!

Pinaud Classic Vanilla is a really old-school scent that smells just like the barber shop I would go to with my dad when I was a kid.
A little powdery on the dry-down, but I dig it!
It's pretty cheap here in the US, maybe $6.00 or $7.00 a bottle.

Wow sarimento, what a beautiful explosion of reds and yellows, outstanding!

thx for the note, Michael!
Enjoyed seeing your beefy Shavemac, is that a vintage model?

 

[robk]

still plenty of green in those leaves

a shave for later today in preparation for a wedding this evening.

Mike's Barbershop ... Simpsons Duke 3 Best ... ATT R2 Atlas ... a fresh Polisilver Super Iridium ... probably Myrsol Agua Balsamica followed by a rare (for me lately) spritz of Annick Gotal Sables EdT

the leaves aren't in focus, but all that green reflected in the mirror is from one of the many trees here that have only just begun to turn.
