  • Brush: AP Shave Co. - 24mm Synbad Fan
  • Razor: Fatip Classic Testina Gentile
  • Blade: Elios Inoxidable (7)
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Tobacconist - Soap
  • Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Lamplight Penance - Toner
  • Post Shave: Nivea Sensitive Balm

Lamplight Penance is one of the strongest scented things I own, including my small collection of EdPs. Usually when I wear a frag on the same day as using this toner, I smell LLP long after the EdP has faded.

I've started wetting my face before applying the toner, then apply a smallish amount, then give my face a half-assed rinse with water, and pat it off with a towel. This makes the scent more bearable and nice.
