  • Brush: Zenith/Stirling - 510SE-XL 31mm boar
  • Razor: Chiseled Face - Titanium Legacy Razor
  • Blade: Bolzano - Superinox (2)
  • Lather: Chiseled Face - Ghost Town Barber
  • Post Shave: Chiseled Face - Ghost Town Barber Aftershave splash
  • Post Shave: Ginger's Garden - Unscented Aftershave balm (+ menthol)
  • Fragrance: Stirling - Oro Valley EdT

I'm trying to use this soap regularly to potentially kill a tub within the next few months.

I love the scent of GTB, but I'm not sure I'll replace the tub when it's gone. For a barbershop scent, I think I currently prefer ZM's The Master.

Legacy + Bolzano was a great combo as always.

I'm on the hunt, as well. My tub of Caoba is getting close...

There’s a part of me that wants to buckle down and focus on the kill.

Then the next morning comes and I get distracted by the other soaps I want to use. I should just hide everything else from myself or something.
