Cologne: Penhaligon Opus 1870
Result: Today was a special treat. I decided it was time to break the mold and my usual routine of shaving with str8s...So, I reached into my shave drawer and took out the box where I had stored my DEs for the past 5 months or so, in favor of str8s. Not today...Talk about an emotional reunion :001_smile. I prepped my beard with T&H pre-shave oil and überlather and the DE razors with a couple of Derby blades. No sooner than the blade contacted my face, did memories come flooding back..."Total Recall" baby! The vintage deluxe DE was used for a WTG/XTG pass, while the slant came at the end with a slick ATG pass. I had forgotten how wonderful these razors were :thumbup1:. BBS shave to kick start this day.
