For once I didn't buy anything!!!

Popped to my grandma's tonight on my way home and lo and behold my uncle whilst clearing a cupboard found an old grooming set belonging to my granddad. My grandad was known for keeping things, but after a few years since he passed I gave up on ever owning anything belonging to either of my grandfathers. My week has been made by this little find. I already have a Tech but now I have my grandfathers Tech, judging from the blade it's late 60's. Blade is sealed and looks in good nick so I'll be giving both a whirl on Monday. Sadly no brush or soap in the tubes, I'll try and clean the insides out to store a stick or two, they look a bit grubby internally.

Now if only he can dig a little deeper and find some Fat Boys or Slims!!!

Great find that.
 
Some fragrance samples!

Valentino Uomo Intense
Guerlain L'Homme Ideal Edt
Guerlain L'Homme Ideal Edp
Dunhill Icon
Bvlgari Man in Black
Midnight in Paris Edt

Very much looking forward to comparing the Guerlain's, Bvlgari and MiP EDT to MiP EDP which I currently own! Valentino Uomo Intense is often likened to Dior Homme which gets a lot of praise (though, so does the Valentino). Dunhill Icon has also piqued my interests so got me some of that, too! :D
 
View attachment 34142 With thanks to @Digimonkey for gifting my first bar of this Tallow bath soap from La Toja ,subsequently discovering how wonderful it was I just had to order more at a very good price from Gemstone Traiding UK
A great creamy lather, with a masculine scent. :) P.

My late Father-in-law used that soap, I used to love it. I didn't realise Gemstone carried it - I must go and have a look.
