I recommend invested in a Rose soap as well (Trumper's makes a good one too). I sometimes like combining various florals together (Violet + Rose or Lavender + Rose, etc...).

Robert, it sounds fantastic! I'll do it.
Thanks.

Late evening shower and shave today, getting ready for the night shift.

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: Simpson Chubby 1

Razor: Revisor 6/8

Strop: 40/60 Neil Miller Linen/English Bridle

Soap/Cream: Cella

After shave: Musgo Real

Results: Quick shave today, not that I was in a hurry, it just went fast, barely 15 minutes for shower and a close and comfortable two pass shave. My first straight shave eleven months ago took me about an hour, at that time I never thought I'd actually be able to shave faster with a straight than with carts, and certainly not to have a comfortable shave in that time. It's fun to see the results of the last year's effort.
