I'm really glad I got his details from you...his soaps smell really great & they give out loads of lather. The next ones on my wish list (aside from the upcoming APR releases) would be the ones from Luna that you also recommended (y)

Oh you will love Elena/Luna's soap. The same kind/form of soap composition, but different fragrances and lather to a degree. Both make really, really good artisan soaps in my book :)
 
Not muy time to enter here lately (better after friday). I have been lately going back to vegans after trying byLuna. It is certainly quite weel above other vegans I have, but today I went back to tallow. Not as hot in the afternoon as in the morning, so I move onto Coeur de Vert. This warm rainiy afternoon looks great for it:

Razor: merkur 42c + maggard handle
blade: Gillette 7O'Clock SP (3)
brush: yaqi sacred family
soap: APR CdV
splash: APR CdV
EdP: APR CdV (just a little bit as someone is coming along later, but it would have been more than enough withe scent of the splash)

I made a review of wolfpack italian orchard for a spanish shaving forum the other day (that I may bring here along the weekend). Coer de Vert is next!

Phoenix & Beau Whitechapel
Antica Barbieria Colla Boar
Delta Echo Fatboy
Nacet
APR Winterfell Splash
APR Winterfell EdP

Heavy load and tonnes of slick, gorgeous smelling perfect lather. Fatboy was on a 3 with a new Nacet. I could have hacked away all day and not done any damage. The rich, unctuous, APR Winterfell Chypre giving me a big Autumnal hug to finish.
Smooth, irritation free, smelling great. I can’t ask for any more.
Better than embalming fluid mate ;)

Pre: hot wash
Brush: Plissonese
Soap: B&M Rhapsody
Razor: Guerrilla w Ti Russian 14mm
Blade: Nacet (3)
A/S: B&M Rhapsody
Post: Nivea sensitive balm

New handle that balanced the Guerrilla head out well with a similar weight as the original 16mm handle. Pineapple knurling has the most grip I've ever felt. Tempted to get a custom order similar at 18x85mm so nice to hold.

Beside the aesthetics (which are awesome) how is the Nacets fairing esp. considering the price point?

Please share. As I stay away from the other forums and will remain a lurcher upon them.
Also my Spanish is non existent.

Soap: APR Winterfell
Brush: Omega 10019 Boar
Razor: Fatboy (7 & 9)
Blade: Wizamet Polsilver (3 & binned)
Post: Tamanu
Nice shave off the Fatboy. Tried Tamanu for post shave balm which is fine if you're washing off later. Leaves the face a bit sticky.
 
No shave today. Sixth day in a row.
... To give my skin a rest after far too many aggressive shaves.
Hopefully I'll get one in tomorrow morning.
I'm keen to try some "Acqua Di Sydney".
