But what a great way to remember him, keep his scent alive
Indeed, and it's still a great scent, even if it is almost as old as I am. And it's not being promoted by Johnny Depp. I don't know what Dior thought they were doing there, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it really is a good look to have your products promoted by a [-n alleged] wife-beater... :unsure:

Eau sauvage is a top scent and despite it being absolutely ancient (1966) those citrus top notes keep it youthful.
As for sauvage, it’s a completely different scent- it’s deeper, more long lived and a great choice in its own right though much like the other Eau sauvage variants they will always be a little in the shadow of one of the worlds greatest scents ever produced.

As for Mr Depp, I wasn’t there so I don’t knows what the truth is but much like Tom cruse he is a fantastic actor with a share of controversy which may or may not be deserved, one thing is true though, a brand can leverage his image.

Soap: Parker Sandalwood
Brush: Platypus
Razor: Gillette Black Beauty (5)
Blade: Rapira

The Platypus is a beautiful brush. This the first time I've used it in a couple of years (still haven't got all my gear out of storage).
Has anyone heard what has happened to Ron Spencer? He was eBay seller rspe7027. A substantial number of my straight collection came through Ron. I have tried his email and phone but they bounce/disconnected.

He was pretty popular following the recent court case, having seemingly won in the court of public opinion. He's was probably driving high sales for anything he was attached to shortly after the verdict.

Lather: Barrister and Mann - Blue Oceana
Post: Barrister and Mann - Reserve Blue Waves

I hope everyone show some support for @SpeedyPC today after the devastating loss to QUEENSLAND last night. I decided to do an all blue colour theme shave today. And it was a great shave. The Waves aftershave was a bit salty.

I purchased it about fifteen years ago. It came with "New" short & long comb heads and base plates replated in chrome.

I missed them :(

I do have a replated NEW head with a nice handle though :)

I thoroughly enjoyed being there to see Queensland have a great win. Two from two at Adelaide oval!
