I thought they didn't do it in EdT strength - isn't it EdC (cologne) strength, which should explain why it's weaker?

Razor | Jernbolaget | Cream | Musgo Real Orange Amber| After Shave | Tabac
A very satisfying shave this morning was had with this tatty old razor, with its worn leather scales, spidery grey patination and tired demeanour. The edge is excellent, though. Every time I use this razor I imagine some sort of sea captain (a little like Captain Haddock in the Tin Tin cartoons) shaving in the wheel house of his wooden boat on whatever sea that it is that surrounds Sweden. That’s what I like about vintage razors, the dreams they inspire each morning as I shave...
The edge itself was superb, a perfect match of smoothness and keenness. Cream was pillowy and slick. Technique (if I must say so myself) was flawless :o
