First day with the T and H was an awesome shave. An almond and a half or so made plenty of lather for a three pass shave. The scent, which started in the bowl with a traditional, cologne smell, became more complex and a sandalwood note was present during the shave. The lather was quite slick. It had that face feel where all you really needed to do after a pass was wipe some water on your face and go again. I like this cream. Throwing in the balm sample was a nice touch and finished off a great shave, and the post shave feel WAS really good.
Now the bad part: Ten minutes after the shave, my face is on FIRE. I've never reacted badly to a cream or soap before, so this is new to me. I feel like that guy in the You Tube video whose wife put the hot sauce in his AS. Maybe it was the balm? Something in the fragrance oil from both? I will try again tomorrow without the balm and see what happens, but if my face burns like this tomorrow, I am going to have to sit the rest of this one out. Hope not.
