Post: Fine Classic After Shave – Platinum

An excellent, leisurely, luxurious shave! I think I have a new favorite scent. The Sweet Tea is my first Soap Commander product (thanks Pete!), and I have to say it is a good introduction. I pressed some in the bottom of my bowl, and added a couple drops of hot water while I prepped. The boar brush whipped it into a thick rich lather pretty easily, and it really didn’t take much. I actually ended up scraping what was left out of the bowl and putting it back into the container. That was after a ridiculously smooth 4 pass (YES I said four pass! I’m walking the tightrope people! lol) shave of the dome AND a 2.5 pass on the neck.

Last shave on the Treet blade. It was still incredibly smooth. I could tell it was a little less sharp, but I still pulled off a BBS on the dome and a DFS on the neck. I’m going to have to re-visit the Personna Red soon because I think the Treet just may have knocked it out of its spot!

It’s seems like its been forever since I’ve used my MR3. I seem to have gotten much more comfortable with it, but I think it may be because of the smoothness of the Treet blade. I can see that combo becoming a rotation regular. I topped off with the Fine, just because. I can’t say it goes well with the Sweet Tea or not. As soon as I put it on, it quickly overwhelmed the smell of the soap. But whatever, I smell darn good! Have a good weekend!
