Wow. Why don’t I use these soaps (I have 2 of them) more often? Great skin food this stuff. Great scent.
Enjoyable 3 pass shave with enough lather to spare for two more.
Nice.
Next up, the Le Grelot 355 6/8. Soap has yet to be determined, but the SV Tundra Arctica could be the prime candidate.

Brush and soap:
Simpsons LE TSN 2013 P8 Phyl #195 Best Badger and The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood:
The Simpsons LE TSN 2013 P8 Phyl #195 Best Badger with The Vulfix Classic Sandalwood is a nice combination that comes into its own. This cream gives a nice scented foam, but not a really nice sandalwood, because a little too much cinnamon comes forward in the scent. The shaving qualities are absolutely good, but one sandalwood is not the other and this one has more of a simmering pear, which is not wrong with a deer steak, but during shaving this is a distraction. We like it very much and it is of good quality, but not a real sandalwood.
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus for the 8th x used.
The blade, the Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus, performs well for the 8th x, so tomorrow still 1x, but then it's time for the piggy bank, right? With the Fasan Slant #42 the Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus is a nice combination. This open comb slant is extremely effective and with the Rubie very reliable, so that I shave effortlessly my head and face without "leaks".
Result: BBS.
Finally: The conclusion is a top shave, which is fragrantly finished with the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, the TFS Crazy Sandalwood ASB and some Proraso Con Olio di Sandalo AS to impregnate the wood odor once again.
 
Balea rasieröl
Omega synthetic
Tabac shaving stick
Sonnal bakelite slant + personna crystal
Vdh alum
Thayer's witch hazel
Speick AS, vdh balsem

I'm getting the hang of the sonnal slant. It is lite so I have to take care not to use to much pressure and keep the single correct.

Speick AS always gives me a nice freah smell.

Best wishes to the @The King

The Blackbird always feels a bit rough for me, but the result mostly is smooth.
Today it is efficiently smooth.

Brush and soap:
Jerusalem Harkos® Fibre and TFS Anniversary Italian Fern:
Two old servants in my rotation, the Jeruzalem Harkos® Fibre and the TFS Anniversary Italian Fern, guarantee a good foam. The brush is a firm 4G synthete and the soap has a delicious fern scent, very specific scent of TFS. This soap will stay in my rotation as long as it is available. As said fine foam, but also fine shaving and nurturing properties, let the knife run smoothly and smoothly.
Knife and scraper:
The Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus for the 9th x used.
Although not absolutely necessary, the Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus has ended up in a piggy bank after 9 times. It still has a bit of a cut, but that's enough. So tomorrow a fresh knife. Gillette Tech Fat Handle with Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus should go well, right? That was true, but since the combination doesn't really feel effective, I had to do some work here and there for an absolutely smooth result. The knife is better in place in a more effective scraper and preferably with teeth.
Result: BBS.
Finally: refresh with the Pinaud-Clubman Citrus Musk Eau de Cologne. Then take care and get some fresh air with Stirling Varen ASB and Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio, which is also a nice fougère.
