Pre Shave: Hot Towel
Razor: Mühle R95 Rocca Birch Bark Handle
Blade: Astra
Soap: B&M Marilyn
Brush: YAQI Mars 30mm Boar
Post: B&M Marilyn Balm
First shave with Marilyn. It's a scent that's hard to describe. Kind of Smokey tobacco, leather and sandlewood but its quite nice.
I'm liking the Rocca but find the handle is quite thick to what I normally like. It's something I'll just have to get used too.

Shave Result: RazoRock soap produced a lovely rich creamy medium density lather. The Lather provided excellent primary and residual slickness. To me the scent is a bright citrus aroma up front with many supporting notes, this is a wonderful scent, scent strength 7/10 with light menthol cooling. Awesome smooth BBS with no irritations from the Leaf/Twig combo.
