I really like the scent of 4711, but boy o boy does the edt vanish fast (on me, almost directly, almost as if the AS stays longer)... This brush/razor/soap combo wiped away two days stubble like nothing else, fantastic shave! :D

Thet's a purty pitcher. Dang Mikey, you never give up.....that razor sits on the stand about perfect. The Good Doctor could learn a thing or two about enabling from you. I can just imagine this image pushing someone off the straight fence and into a living hell!!! You would of course be the host.

The Gillette silver blue is not one of my favourite blades, yet it worked well in the 37c.
