Share your shave of the day!

Good shave, but I still have a slight tingle on my face. There are maybe 2 or 3 shaves still left on the sample.
Have a good evening!
Old Strathcona++;
I plan to use my sample for my SLS later today. Great stuff!
Fleur de France is such an odd-ball. Half a Fougère (missing the green) on one hand, and powerful musk on the other. At first sniff, you brace for a stanky animalistic scent, and instead it’s clean smelling. I love it. Getting a backup set of this discontinued scent was the right decision.
This one was where I drew the line on the Seaforth! scents. Sounds nice, but I lean more towards the citrusy, spicey, woodsy, tobaccoy direction for scents.
sehr schick!
[yes, used google translate guessing that chique translated to schick in German]
[it’s one of the few German words that made it into French and back again]
I may start coming around to this brush. Yes, it’s tiny, yes it feels empty in the face, but it lathers easily, and has great flow-through (duh). I haven’t had a single bad lather with it yet. It may be the Henson Al13 of brushes for me in that it is very functional and that I feel like a dick criticising it because it’s objectively fine.
Mindigo ++;
Armonía ++;

Armonía is on the list. Hoping for Black Friday sales.

I’m back home now so I could have picked a different soap to use, but this one was nearby and I’ve been enjoying it for the past 5 days so decided to give it another go.

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Rosa Oud is such a terrific scent, and the Eufros base is so silky. Great SLS this evening!

King of Oud is an older scent from Wholly Kaw. I saw somewhere that it is a dupe of Creed Royal Oud. The scent has no dankness or barnyard smell to it. I’ve never smelled these notes on an oud scent, but recall that they can be there. Anyway, this one’s a keeper. I’m off to try and find a decant of Royal Oud. I have a feeling this could be a real find for me. Great FLS today!
It’s Veterans Day here in the US. I have worked with all branches of the US military except the Coast Guard during my career. This is a day where we thank those who have served for their service.
