Glad you enjoyed that Madison Avenue @Holiday, I'm sure it would fit in so well in Darwin, like Cavenagh St / Madison Avenue, so close right?

As for me -

Can they swim with crocodiles on Madison Avenue - I think not :unsure:

Cheers Mark I like the scent but have not been able to find the profile. Would you say it's a dark fougere?
Still have 1/2 bottle of a/s that will pair nicely with other soaps. T/H

I think that there might be a few sharks on Madison Avenue - so close!

I can't recall the profile on the soap/splash I'm afraid.

Pre-shave: Hot water, Pears soap
Brush: CaYuen "Copper Ore" 30mm SynBad
Soap/Cream: Czech & Speake - Oxford & Cambridge
Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Kai PINK
Post-shave: Shower, Homebrew moisturiser, La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF50+

I'm finding these hard soaps get me to BBS really quickly. I sometimes wonder if it's the absence of clay in the formulation, and therefore less to get in the way of the blade... :unsure:

Brush: Alpha Shaving Brushes Krysten Ti 28mm UHD Manchurian
Razor: Merkur 34C
Blade: Gillette Stainless Red & White (15) - thanks @rhodes96
Pre: Shower
Soap: Palmira sapun za brijanje
Bowl: Peréira Shavery Unbreakable Lather Bowl
Post: RR New York A/S Splash // Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm // Byron Bay Medicinal Herbs Dragons Blood Beauty Serum
WTG, ATG, Touchups = DFS+

A few enjoyable shaves but no matter the buffing I was unable to get my chin BBS but seeing as its a weekend it doesn't really mater!
Finally finished the soap and not sure I'd replace it as much prefer Cella but decent lather and its one my dad used in his early shaves so some sentimental value...

Stay Safe & Happy Shaves!
