Good Morning !
~07/02/2012~

Semogue Owners Club \\ Merkur 1904 w/ Red IP \\ Proraso Crema Pre E Dopo Barba \\ Proraso Sapone Da Barba: Con Olio Di Sandalo \\ La Toja Manantiales After Shave Balsamo

So I went ahead and switched back to a Red IP. Its big a noticeable difference for me when using a Derby and Red IP. Blades are all YMMV, but I tried the Derby again at least. Its great to already see that from this week's theme, my everyday items are already made in both Germany & Italy, so this will not be a problem. I was routing for Italy in the final match, and Spain proved themselves again winning it. Have a nice day!

I guess you can say the same with your outstanding picture that has an Italian All Star, the one and only Cella!

Thank you, Balaji. Pretty much a no brainer to start this week.

I love that you went with a big Italian scent to star in this one! Great image, David!

Thank you, Bill The Mazzolari hasn't seen much use of late so a great week to remind myself of the strength this fragrance carries. After the previous huge mistake of being quite liberal with it, this morning was much more frugal. And 12 hours on, it's still remarkably noticable.

Great shot, David. In the spirit of the week's theme, I'll be hitting the Mazzolari at some point -- probably my favorite Italian line of fragrances.

Thank you, Matt, and yes, the Mazzolari is a must for this week!
