Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W Razor: Genco 'Fluid Steel' Brush: Simpson PJ3 Cream: Cyril R Salter Vetiver Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel AS: Vetiver Carven EDT: Vetiver Carven Summary: Today I had a serious vetiver craving so I took my trusted excellent performing Salter Vetiver for a luxurious lather followed by my vintage Vetiver de Carven AS and EDT. Just one word, divine. Also spend a short time with John today at my home chatting away and devouring a bag of pop corn in less than 5 minutes. 
As always, excellent shaves, pictures and hardware from everyone! Enjoy the new week.

Thanked: 2623 Sunday morning
I´m allways surprised by the cushion effect Al´s creams has, it´s similar to Penhaligon´s. The cream in this tube´s close to be a soft soap though and I like it (the samples I´ve tried before has all been soft and fluffy creams
).
