The Juniper ASS with oil has grown on me. I just wish the scent would last a bit longer than it does.

Something wickedly sharp my way comes
Been up in northernmost Norway fishing for salmon for the last 9 days, living in a log fired cabin. Brought 3 pre stropped razors, a brush and a soap and did my shaving in front of a small mirror hanging on the porch outside the log fired sauna. Nice Came home yesterday and my new C-Mon Blackie was waiting in the mailbox.
