EdP: Hermes - Un Jardin Sur Le Nil

I'm traveling with my Rocca this week for international Labor Day and had a nice afternoon shave after a long drive. A major achievement today with the GSB for a 2 pass WTG DFS. I had one lapse in concentration though and applied way too much pressure at one point during the second pass. I did feel that error immediately but didn't draw much blood at all. Luckily, I brought a travel size bottle of witch hazel and my styptic pencil along.

Lathering was a breeze with the Arno synthetic brush, a bit of Speick and a dab of Glycerin.

Today's shave was completed with MΓΌhle Sandalwood Aftershave balm, which I forgot to place in the picture, and bit of post shave Aloe Vera.

The fragrance for today is the decadent Hermes - Un Jardin Sur Le Nil.

Have a great shave everybody.

Comments
This is the third shave with the Wolfman WR2 with a Personna Lab blade. The result was a close, smooth, BBS shave with no irritation or other issues. This is the second use of the Haslinger Sandalwood soap. I didn’t detect any scent from the soap although the lather was slick and did a good job. Today I am using a silvertip badger brush that I don’t see being used on B&B: a C.O Bigelow in Super. A perfect shave. Have a wonderful day, folks.
