Teiste,
Where on earth do you find these wonderful products. Your den must be a museum of shaving. Nicely done

Great birthday shave with the Filarmonica .

Amund,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY buddy. What a great way to start the celebration with this wonderful shave...But I see that you have "stolen" Rune's Filarmonica and trying to cover it up with the MdC soap, LOOOOOL. Congrats on a great buy

I refer to the scent. I love the lavender, I have used it in colonies a lot of years, but its smell is different in the cream TOBS. I suppose that the reason is that I compare a cream with a colony, and the rest of components of the cream do that its scent changes. I am not sure, it is only IMMO.

Angel,
Thanks for the clarification buddy and thank you for the nice words.

T.,
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. That sounds like a great soap, but not sure about the name??!! Ugli??
