2024 Shaving Acquisitions Thread

I just picked up a few things from a retired Italian barber facebook.
After a good chat and an espresso (he made)
He just about gave them to me (well half his wholesale price)
Never tried either of these before.
Not sure what to do with it all yet.
"Or I never need to buy shaving cream again.
Cheers

Update I checked I retail price I think the old fella may not have told the truth on the his wholesale prices
it goes to show check the price first
I still saved money but not a steel after all
Cheers
 
After a self imposed hiatus on soaps (first soap purchase for 2024, I think), I picked up a couple I was curious about, and would regret missing out. AUD to the US dollar is horrendous, atm. Also reamed on shipping, but at least it was ultra quick, like 5 days (shipped on 30/8, arrived today). From Maggards.

Initial thoughts on scent off the tub.

Brewer: Sharp pineapple and passionfruit.

Jack: Limey gin.

Shire 2: violet and green tobacco

Dammusi: tbh, I can't get any blood orange or any kind of orange off the tub. To me, it smells like sophisticated (read expensive) Arko.

Quote of the day:
“sophisticated Arko”
