  • Brush: Maggard 24mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Gillette Tech (Z-4)
  • Blade: V12 Super Platinum (2)
  • Lather: Viking Shaving Soap - Norway - Soap
  • Post Shave: Old Spice - Hawkridge - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Harry's - Aftershave Balm
  • Fragrance: Barrister & Mann - Lavender, Interrupted - EdP

I wonder if I reached for this soap knowing it lathers similarly to the soap I used yesterday. Load dry, add water sparingly, and it works great. Norway is interesting enough to keep around, and it's the only soap I have which prominently features Clove.
