[Time Bandit]

Razor: Gillette "Slim" Adjustable
Blade: Gillette Nacet Stainless

Lather: Van Yulay Café Vetyver
Brush: The Wet Shaving Store Faux Horn
Bowl: Fine Accoutrements Fine Lather Bowl

Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve

What a wonderful shave I had with Café Vetyver from Van Yulay. This soap caught my eye seeing as I enjoy both drinking coffee and the smell of vetiver. This soap has an interesting addition though with the inclusion of an added nutmeg note.

When I smell this soap I get a big coffee/chocolate note right off the top. Maybe my brain mixes coffee and nutmeg and then comes up with chocolate. I'm not sure what's going on there.

The vetiver has a nice earthy quality and helps ground the whole accord. Overall I think this soap is really good. It makes me wish I had the matching aftershave though.

The soap base was fantastic as always and helped me achieve a smooth shave. If this soap catches your eye, I think you'll like it too.

Take care and enjoy your shaves.

Greetings,

A relaxing Turkish theme Sunday morning shave.

As always the humble Arko shave stick provide a slick protective lather in a short space of time.

I've mentioned many times in my posting that I take into consideration why some people have a love/ hate opinions on the scent of Arko & derby shave sticks, even though both are great performing soaps some people can't/won't shave with them purely because of their scent, to my nose both soaps have a 'Clean scent' which I don't have any issues with besides that, once I've done my final cold water face rinse I find the scent has virtually disappeared. I also count myself very fortunate to have a skin type that hasn't had a adverse-reaction to any of the shaving soaps and creams that I've used to date.

A enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups comfortable shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.
