No, some SV scents are polarizing for me. I have 3 and I sold some, they are enough. I would like scents from a single oil, but with SV it is impossible.
100% agree, that's why I cut off my bloody nose. So I don't get smacked in the face from a very polarising scent.

23 March - SR shave No. 1,921
I finished cleaning up one of the SRs donated by @LesC for PIFing. A Gold Dollar 66 that he won in a December 2023 PIF. I cleaned the blade up and gave it a new edge, finishing on my Jnat unknown Kyoto whetstone. An absolutely beautiful shave was had. This razor is now being PIFed here.

This little sample lasted 20 shaves.
Love the 1912. There is absolutely no reason why I would not shave with this every day except boredom and variety.
They really nailed this model for function and aesthetic. Palm stropped the blade and see if it lasts a few more days.

Soap/Aftershave:- Castle Forbes 1445 Shaving Cream and Aftershave Balm
