@Gargravarr I see I will need to make an entry in the AA FAQ page to explain the purpose of the dice. :D

BTW, you might be interested in some Bergamot Lavender shampoo bars arriving this month. ;)

Heh, I might have to let my hair grow for that. It might be a shock, I've been shaving it all off for 17 years now... :LOL:

How do you like your Titan razor? I’ve got one on the way.

@Manumik's Titan SR is of Japanese ACRM-2 steel (specially made for Titan) with a hardness a little below 60 RHC, probably about 57 to 59 RHC. All Titan SR's have about the same profile and similar grind, about half-hollow. The variation in their mass is mainly due to the different scales that they fit to each of their models.

Didn't get to shave yesterday with this so it made it's debut tonight. 3days growth and the Parker 99r cleared it effortlessly. I forget sometimes how efficient this razor is. Such an underrated razor with beautiful chrome and heft to it.

Empire I can describe as fresh linen with a hint of citrus? It's a very light scent but pleasent and enjoyable. Whips up into a yoghurty lather easily. The aftershave is even better and non drying on the skin. Seems to have staying power. Felt great post shave and the wife says it's a 'date night's scent with a nice shirt and dinner by the Yarra. A foreign idea at the moment 😂
