@todras What do you mean with spreadsheets?. As a non native english speaker... for me is a piece of software with a table of cells to put numbers an letters on them, and them import to a proper data analysis software :)

do you mean something like this but in paper sheets?

No I enter all my soaps and aftershaves into excel spreadsheets so I can keep track of them all... :)
 
Nice find @Snooze ! I only recently found out about this era of Schicks and was blown away by the beautiful designs. I'll look out for your SOTD with it. ;)

Been missing having some P&B in the drawer.

I've had the Sanskrit before and it is a favourite, Citra Royale and Solaris were samples I've enjoyed, Star Noir just intrigued me. :happy:
 


The first of the Travelling Box inspired buys arrives along with a Blue Stratos I couldn't resist at a Priceline. I may annoy some people with my Special Reserve shave tonight!
Outstanding work, @Greenpike !

Picked these up from the post office today. Been wanting to do this for a while but one has to balance priorities.........
Could've bought a (very) nice razor with what I've spent on essential oils etc so I've been holding off but this finally got the better of me. Looking forward to giving them a run. @todras :happy:
The aftershave did leak a tiny bit in transit so I did whack the excess on the bottle on my face . Funny thing was immediately afterwards I had to meet the same guys I'd caught up with a week or two ago to buy a shipping container. First meeting I was reeking of spilt essential oil that had leaked in transit. So I was freshly scented again for this meeting. Hope they don't think I'm doing it just for them. :LOL:
Postscript: The shipping container isn't for my shaving gear..........yet.
