Shaving in the evening for a few months now because its a rush out the door in under 30 minutes in the morning and don't have time to enjoy a good shave.
One challenge with shaving in the evening is regrowth. Shaving with a straight resolves that issue. 2 x WTG = BBS every time

Brush:- Beard and Blade Classic Synthetic
Soap/Cream:- Barrister and Mann - Figarose

I am still in Japan, so I didn’t have a chance to watch the game tonight. But I will be sure to have another Asahi to celebrate the QLD win! What was the final score again? 32 - 6! Wow!

Cheers, @SpeedyPC !

I've never come across C&S Perfecto Fino before. Sounds like fearsome stuff, probably out of my league...

Apparently the possession count was NSW 54%-QLD 46%, yet the score was 32-6... Wow.

Hello my Friendly Gentleman Shaver from WA.
Mr @JaggardJ kindly sent me a sample of the Seaforth Sea Spice Lime and I am yet to shave with it but it is a delectable scent and very strong. Reminds me somewhat of Dencorub and Vicks because the scent is so strong.
Hopefully there is no irritation.

Hope it works out for you. It mellows somewhat during lathering, and I find it refreshing.

"Fearsome stuff" is actually a pretty good summary. Thankfully I only had a sample - this is most definitely not a safe blind buy.
If Knize 10 or Caron Yatagan are not alpha male enough for you, why not turn it up to 11 with Perfecto Fino!
It is, at least upon first use, too extreme for me, and I enjoy the powerhouses. Very potent smoky, leathery scent.

Brush: Beard and Blade Classic Synthetic
Soap: Barrister and Mann - Figarose
Razor: King C Gillette
Blade: Feather (1)
Post-shave: Lúcido Aftershave Lotion

Rainy day here in Japan. We have been lucky with the weather so far, but today it’s just non-stop rain.

Decent shave, just a small weeper with the new Feather blade. I picked up the Lúcido Aftershave from a local pharmacy. Unscented with alcohol and lightly mentholated. Not bad.
