And the Mazzolari Mazzolari is like an 80's power scent on steroids; if it was a man, you'd expect him to randomly walk up to you, punch you in the berries and walk away laughing with your woman on his arm. Just powerfully good!

A great great shave, love the Jnat edge! The Cade ASB feels a little greasy, but got a nice scent. Cade soap and cream was a wonderful combo.

Methinks the K&D is ready for a turn at the PHIG and the barber hone. There was some pulling on the first past so I the barber hone a few times and things were better after that, but still not as good as I'm used to with this little razor. I can sure feel the difference between this and the 6/8 JM Schmid I used yesterday. I think I prefer the stouter razors. I'll know for sure when my 6/8 Dovo Best quality gets in either today or tomorrow. Had to do more touch up today with the Futur than I did yesterday.

Friday:

Expert Barber 400 6/8
EJ Best
Wilkinson Sword Stick
Witch Hazel
Nivea S. Balm
Burberry Brit edt

I am literally running out the door this AM, but had to check out those wonderful shaves of yours...Well done guys

No shave for me today...I would rather take my time with a good shave than rush it. Tomorrow will be more special
