Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm,
TFS Neroli Strong,
RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P,
Rapira Chrome stainless 7th x,
Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon,
Arko Nem Avocado ASB,
Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio.
Brush and soap:
Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm and TFS Neroli Strong:
There are those shaves, that seem so normal, but feel really good afterwards. Such a one is this one. With Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm whipped up a mighty lather from the TFS Neroli Strong. This soap is since long a favorite among my citrus soaps. Nice full Grail with full fat fragrant lather.
Blade and razor:
Used the Rapira Chrome stainless for the 7th time.
The Rapira Chrome stainless still shaves nicely this 7th x, but may go in the piggy bank, as some wear is noticeable. The RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P with its head flat on the skin let the Rapira Chrome stainless give a nice smooth result.
Result: BBS.
Finally: fresh and fruity finish with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Arko Nem Avocado ASB and Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio finishes it off nicely. Satisfied!

J&T® Bamboo Tuxedo Syntheet 24mm,
The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood,
Fatip Grande Rutinia,
Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel 1st x,
Proraso Con Olio di Sandalo AS,
Proraso Wood and Spice ASB,
Old 24 Hours.
Brush and soap:
J&T® Bamboo Tuxedo Syntheet 24mm and The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood:
Nice woody lather whipped from The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood with the J&T® Bamboo Tuxedo Syntheet 24mm. Such a classic English scent. Good glide and shaving properties. Best cream, which makes excellent shaving foam, from that thick Bulgarian yogurt. Nice sandalwood scent, but also cinnamon is clearly present.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel for the 1st x.
The Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel is a blade, which suits me well. Not gentle and shaves well. In my Fatip Grande Rutinia with large "blade gap" the Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel feels extremely effective. This also yielded a few blood points, but nothing, that alum does not dissolve.
Result: BBS.
Finally: nicely woody rounded off with Proraso Con Olio di Sandalo AS, Proraso Wood and Spice ASB and Oud 24 hours.

Proraso Crema Pre Barba,
Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm,
Proraso Green,
Gillette Rocket HD,
Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel 2nd x,
Proraso AS,
Cien Men Hydro Moisturizing,
4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser.
Brush and soap:
Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm and Proraso Green:
Shaving with Proraso also implies smearing with Proraso Crema Pre Barba, which gives a nice fresh start. With the Oumo Brush SHD G5 26mm then made a solid lather from the Proraso Green. Simple stuff, but yes it shaves almost as well as Arko.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel for the 2nd time. The Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel is a pleasant blade. Mediocre, but to the positive side. A new acquisition, a Gillette Rocket HD, with this Treet Platinum Super Stainless Steel is a fairly comfortable combo. That razor feels very safe and soft, but the result after 3 rounds is pretty good. Result BBS.
Finally: some Proraso AS, Cien Men Hydro Moisturizing and 4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser AS finishes it off nicely. In the end a fresh and neutral shaving scent.
