Greetings
Friday 17th April 2015
Prep: Shower
Razor: Gillette 'New'
Blade: Treet Durasharp Carbon
Brush: Duke 3
Soap: Klar Kabinett
Aftershave: Astral Cream (light)
EDP: Tom Ford Black Orchid
A lovely shave. I have never owned or even shaved with a modern all stainless DE razor the likes of Ikon, ATT, Weber etc but if they are better than a common or garden 'New' they must be one hell of a razor!
Regards
Dick.
