Thanks, I've tried a few of those (or variations thereof), and I guess a few extra palm lathers definitely wouldn't hurt. I'm not really too fussed about it though. I think the best way might be to "just use it" and enjoy the process.

Whenever I see the Lucky Tiger aftershave, the first thing that comes to mind is "Tiger Balm", and I shudder at the thought of putting that on my face at any time, especially straight after a shave! I then have to remind myself that it's a very different product. ;) It looks like it's good stuff, so I might have to give it a try one day.

I find it more soothing than most aftershaves.

Is it just me or does this soap scent remind you of like a pineapple crush soda/drink. That's what I am getting off the puck. I haven't used it yet though and I wouldn't say that I have quite the sophisticated nose for scents as many others here.

Are you killing off your Jermyn St now? :LOL:

Will stock up before the end (y) need a few sensitive sets for this time of year and Jermyn St is one of my favourites

I used to think likewise until I discovered Castle Forbes. Though admittedly, CF is nearly twice as expensive... :unsure: TOBS is certainly great value.
 
Happy belated New Year beautiful people!

Soap: OSP Bay Rum
Brush: Vulfix VS 1 or Cyril R Salter (the jury is still out on this one)

Esp. on BST (y) was very tempted to get some CW or Dr Harris at Pasteurs new year 25% off sale but they didnt have the splash in stock - maybe next year

You might find that after you've paid for postage you might as well have ordered through Mensbiz. Though here's a funny thing, I wanted a stick of DRH Windsor for travelling last December when I was making my pre-sabbatical top-ups but had to settle for a tube of the cream (which I haven't tried). Needless to say, there's plenty of stock now. :rolleyes:
