Yeah!. It wasn't my initial choose for scent, but read here time ago about this particular scent and decideed to give it a go, damn, it is fucking true.. jut sniff and then all things nice, mate, it actually remind me honey caramels and childhood :love::love::love::love:
Funnily enough, honey caramels don't float my boat. I just wish Alex's "Lavende" had been made with the same base. I think I need the lanolin. I really liked the scent...

Razo Rock SS Hawk V3 from Gifts and Care w/ Edwin Jagger sampler. Delivery was approx 3 weeks.
Looking forward to trying this tomorrow and comparing to the Black Hawk.

Did you get the standard, A plate or the OC?
 
Got a bit of a white whale today.. Avon Everest! Not only one decanter..the popular Polar bear but TWO including the Blunderbuss gun as well. Found on Gumtree in a small TAS town and shipped here in a week!. A steal too!

Also included Steam locomotive (Tai Winds),. German Shepherd (Oland) and cannon (Spicy).


Will need a new shelf me thinks. Chockers with Avon here all full of the good vintage stuff.

It wasn't my boat either anything with honey, till I sniff it. (I actually have somewhere some bohemian honey soap and splash from Daisho also eventually arrive home, hopefully before christmas, if covid helps)
 
A long time artisan waiting to give a go...

Pictures shit as usual, but once sniffed, yes, I can say all things nice.
I just blame myself to not go for them when they use to sell it in metal tins....

The soap/cream formulation is really interesting too, I cannot wait to use it

(y) congratulations.. the scent as you know is incredible, the performance is also and you can easily get a very slick lather made

considering you liked this, may i suggest Vanille de Tabac from A&E one day

Thanks again Helena (@HGpottery) for supporting this years Charity Auction and I'm really impressed with how nice the new scuttle + soap dish is. :love:

Sadly it's starting to warming up now but I'll look to give it a workout over the weekend whilst the mornings still fresh! (y)

Almost forgot to mention a special thanks to @alfredus for getting this one all sorted - its greatly appreciated mate! ;)
 
Hi all, I finally received my other auction win in the mail today. The newest member of my shave den.... the Rex Envoy😁

Many thanks and so much gratitude to all involved, @alfredus @Mark1966 and especially the folks at Beard & Blade for donating this razor for a very worthy cause. The extras included were also a pleasant surprise and greatly appreciated.

I’ll be giving this new razor a run in the next few days. I love the very cool ‘knurly’ handle and it reminds me of a certain bass player’s scaled boots so it stands to reason that I’ll call this one... ‘Gene’ 🤘🏻😜🤘🏻
