You are in the lead as far as enabled purchases are concerned this year Shubs, the crown is still yours!Just when I thought I had the award for 'Blademonkey Enabler 2023' in the bag, Chris sneaks in there. With his Emporium as well, it just isn't a level playing field.

2021 was when I last used the Hawk V3. Why did I wait so long? It's an excellent razor.
I like Desert Vetiver. Not in a way that I'd want to smell of it all day but it's a very nice scent for a shave. I'd say it's medium in strength. You can definitely make out the Vetiver in there and it's description of being warm is accurate.What did you think of the scent?
I hated it at first, but it has grown on me. Had a splurge on SV soaps recently. Aside from FA, I love the scent of the Mirto de Sardegna. Surprisingly, the one I really don't like is the 70th.I like Desert Vetiver. Not in a way that I'd want to smell of it all day but it's a very nice scent for a shave. I'd say it's medium in strength.

70th has an aqua di gio vibe to it. My personal favourites are FA, DV, Opuntia and MdS.I hated it at first, but it has grown on me. Had a splurge on SV soaps recently. Aside from FA, I love the scent of the Mirto de Sardegna. Surprisingly, the one I really don't like is the 70th.
