Semogue SOC Bristle Cherrywood,
The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood,
Merkur 38C HD Long Handle Barber Pole,
Treet Dura Sharp 1st x,
Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün,
Mennen Baume Energisant,
Provence et Nature Santal Absolu.
Brush and soap:
Semogue SOC Bristle Cherrywood and The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood:
The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood is a delicious soap, but the sandalwood could have been better called cinnamon, because this soft soap really smells like cinnamon. The smell in my nostrils is too sweet for sandalwood. That doesn't take away the fact that the Semogue SOC Bristle Cherrywood makes a fine foam, but also quite sweet.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Dura Sharp for the 1st time.
Again a Treet Dura Sharp to find out whether or not these blades work for me. The previous two I found useful, unpredictable, and sometimes very well shaving. Just like there is a lot of difference in the behaviour of the blade. I turn them over every day and put them in a different razor every day, but a very different feeling every day. This morning in the Merkur 38C HD Long Handle Barber Pole the Treet Dura Sharp behaves well, but yes, you can't do anything wrong with that razor either. It takes a little more time to get really smooth with this tame razor, but you won't damage anything.
Result: BBS.
Finally: after a splash of Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, some Mennen Baume Energisant and a dash of Provence et Nature Santal Absolu it was again a successful start to the day.

Paladin Buck Rogers 26mm 2CSNL3 fan, Cobalt
CBL - Bay Rum
Gibbs - Ref 15 Dore
Bic
Tunney
After @Clouds sent me a couple of Gibbs prepared blades I finally shaved with my gold Gibbs #15 Reglable. This version, with the plastic handle, has nice balance and really shaves very nice, in position N, but for some reason the blade/razor-combination didn't fit my face: little weepers everywhere my whiskers are tough and my skin is sensitive. Still: looking forward to trying this razor again, and then after, the Ref17, which has a metal handle.

Mühle Silvertip 3 band,
Averse,
Paradigm Diamondback,
Treet Dura Sharp 2nd x,
Wars Classic EnergetyZujaci,
Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü,
Loris E-012 Attitude.
Brush and soap:
Mühle Silvertip 3 band and Wars:
The Mühle Silvertip 3 strap with the Polish tube Wars gives a beautiful shaving foam. Firm and creamy.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Dura Sharp for the 2nd time.
This Treet Dura Sharp again provides an excellent cut and increases the confidence in the blade. Let's see how this continues. The Paradigm Diamondback shaves smoothly with the Treet Dura Sharp, but that requires attention. A little attention to the angle and then it shaves nice and smooth.
Result: BBS.
Finally: matching Wars Classic EnergetyZujaci, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü and Loris E-012 Attitude give a nice spicy floral and nurturing final note.
When I get back to Poland, I'll have some more Wars.

I didn't have Voskhods to send you.
I believe that you will find the brass one a better shaver, I personally find the aluminium one a little draggy.
