2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
New soap company for me. I tried Citrus Bay Rum yesterday and learned that I like the soap base a lot. Very easy to lather and has a rich creamy feel. Maple Bourbon is a very nice scent. I expected the bourbon note to be stronger and darker, but it is definitely there. Very nice fragrance.
Today’s shave was a test of a new Escher edge on my Le Transatlantique. Complete success. The edge was keen and the feel was comfortable.
