Getting towards the end, it was an early favourite of mine, just spent some time waiting for a matching aftershave and cologne :whistle: Not sure how early a batch this is -



But never fear - I have a backup ready -

Great soap. And I'm in the same boat, Agent 66, but also have a backup tub. @Kerry@Phoenix&Beau - love your soaps (have three); its just that us Shaving tragics tend to have far too many in the den; hence we take an eternity to finish a tub :D. Here is my tub:



 
Razor: Timeless scalloped 0.68 / UFO goliath prototype
blade: Feather #3
brush: BSB2 silvertip
Soap: DG TSM Fougere
splash: CL TSM Fougere

First approach with a Full Sized DG. I was going for trismegistus, but was out of stock, so because I already had the matching splash of that....
 
Pre-shave: Hot shower
Brush: Thater boar shaving brush
Soap/Cream: Phoenix & Beau Spitfire shaving soap
Razor: Vintage Eclipse Red Ring
Blade: Personna 'Lab Blue' (4)
Post-shave: Phoenix & Beau Spitfire aftershave lotion
Fragrance: Phoenix & Beau Spitfire Solid Cologne

Shameless a cut and paste from yesterday's SOTD - an encore performance for this outstanding combination!

SOTD 7.11.18
Pre - Hot shower
Brush - Razorock Big Bruce
Razor - Rockwell 6S (4)
Blade - Astra (3)
Soap - D.R. Harris Windsor
Post - APR Skye Fall

Super nice shave this morning, and even though it's a little chilly in Melbourne, I kept with the cold water only for the shave. Most warming part of the shave was/is the scent of the Skye Fall splash. Yummy.....
 
Koraat - The White Queen
D.R.Harris - Marlborough
Dovo - silvertip

Absolutely ballsed up the lather with this one by adding far too much water from the start (well actually, by not shaking the brush off enough). However, ended up with a stellar shave. I absolutely love this razor. Sorry for no pic.
 
Pre-shave: Shower, Glycerine
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Tuxedo
Soap/Cream: Barrister Reserve Spice
Razor: Rockwell 6C (3)
Blade: Polsilver SI (1)
Post-shave: Cold water splash, TSW After Balm

Didn't quiet nail the lather but hade a good 2 pass shave.
