  • Brush: Wild West Brushworks Deep Pearl 26mm Sweet Spot Badger

  • Razor: Koraat 6/8" Full Hollow

  • Lather: PannaCrema - Nuàvia Verde - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Rose - Toner

  • Aftershave: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Heather - Aftershave

  • Fragrance: Floris of London - Elite - Eau de Toilette

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


The PannaCrema soap base is serviceable. A good quality commercial, vegetal, shaving soap, I'd say. OTOH, the scent of Nuàvia Verde is extraordinary. It is the brightest, freshest, fougère I have. Seaforth! Heather is close but a little darker/heavier. A very enjoyable shave today.
