Too early for me to comment on the soap and aftershave, however, the aftershave scent strength is a lot stronger in my face at 8/10 and behaves like a cologne, while the soap from the tub is 5/10 which isn't strong in my face.

Pretty standard APR - "the aftershave scent strength is a lot stronger in my face at 8/10 and behaves like a cologne"

Pre-shave; Warm shower, face rinse with MWF bar soap.
Brush; Simpson, Chubby 2, Faux Emerald resin handle with a 27mm Manchurian Badger knot. “Limited Edition”
Soap; Yardley, Vintage Green label.
Razor; Gillette, Aristocrat Generation 1 (Made in England) replated in Rhodium by BRG. From Set #15.
Blade; Bic, Chrome Platinum. Sharpest/Smoothest I have tried to date, YMMV
Post-shave; My Concoction, No 2; Sauvecito Bay Rum 100mls, Witch Hazel 100mls, Moroccan Argan Oil 25mls, Bay Laurel Essential Oil 12.5mls, Vit E 5mls, Natural Plant Glycerine 2.5mls and 1.25ml of Tea Tree Oil Antiseptic (Thoroughly mixed together) aftershave/moisturiser splash!! ‘’Superb’’
Cologne/EDP;
Moisturiser;
Attar (Perfume Oil);
Shave; Very nice 2 pass & touch-up shave, slick and smooth from the Vintage Yardley. The Chubby has had a couple dozen uses now and 3 hairs shred so far, very happy with this ‘’lather monster’’. The Gillette with the Bic blade combo is probably my preferred to date. Cold water face wash followed by the No2, lovely!!
