My Monday morning shave went very well. This is my last Vintage Rembrandt Stainless blade and I have high hopes for this one. It doesn’t have the build up on it that the other ones did. It did its job well and there was only very minimal sting when I used my Alum Block. I would rate the shave a very decent 9.5/10.

• no-prep
• Gillette Superspeed Redip, Dorco #9
• Semogue Taj SOC boar
• Ach Brito Mogno soap
• Pitralon Classic aftershave

I like Mogno very much. It has a masculine scent and provides a rich lather that protects well forgiving any mistakes handling the razor during the shave.

The scent of the soap does not last any after the shave (pity), and it gives you the freedom to choose whatever aftershave you like. I used Pitralon Classic this time for its strong biting scent.

Rating: 10/10! Another really close shave I enjoyed a lot.

G'day everyone!

A heartfelt tribute to two magnificent Italian fashion designers: Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana. Since their youth they have always believed in their dreams and they have put all their huge talent in creating one of the finest fashion brands on the market worldwide: Dolce & Gabbana. One of their signature scents is Pour Home, an outstanding aromatic fougere Eau de Toilette that, after a few somehow disappointing reformulations, is finally back to its original glory. And it's now again proudly made in Italy. SUPERBA FRAGRANZA.

Bowl: Stirling Travel Bowl
Additional Care: Thayers Witch Hazel (Unscented)

1st night on vacation in Florence, Italy. Our Airbnb is a 17th century apartment near the Ponte Vechio. The Fatip and Saponificio Varesino were singing with joy in their home country (or maybe it was me who was singing). The Fatip is addictively comfortable. DFS+

Wishing you some great shaves.

As always, beautiful composition and set-up, Sir!

MdC Fougere is the best of them. I thought it was Original, but Fougere beats it.
