    Wow, super shave today.

    Went with the absolute best unscented soap on the market (IMHO), and used the low-toned pure tobacco scent, “The Soloist”.

    At first it was not my favorite scent. But it is growing on me, and the wifey really likes it. Not a smoked cigarette scent. But more like a tobacco leaf scent, with a sweet bourbon undertone.

    It is very subtle in scent. And the strength is something like a 4 or 5 out of ten…which I like. (No use overpowering those around you with a scent you like, but that others may find offensive).

    Bottom line, a buttery smooth shave, with silky sticky skin food.

    Crushing Tuesday.

    Straight: Wade & Butcher
    DE: Carbon Shaving Cx-316L (head shave)
    Lather: Southern Witchcraft “Incorporeal” (unscented)
    Balm: Soap Commander “Integrity” (unscented)
    Splash: Zingari Mann “The Soloist”
    Brush: Omega (synthetic)
    Bowl: Captains Choice (large)

    Shaving the blues away.
    From their stillness came their non-action...Doing-nothing was accompanied by the feeling of satisfaction, anxieties and troubles find no place
