Superlather:
TGQ Desert Ironwood soap

*One of the best superlather I ever made, it was so thick in the beginning, then just perfect for a great shave... but TOBS scent totally overpowered TGQ's soap.

Aqua Velva splash, followed by a lot of cold water.

I am thinking about buying the Acqua Di Parma AS balm. Is it worth the $$$? I only used it a few times as a sample and I liked it but I am not yet convinced.
