- Brush: Maggard Razors - SHD Bulb 24mm Badger
- Razor: Joseph Rogers & Sons - Near Wedge (4)
- Lather: Barrister and Mann - Promises - Soap
- Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Heather - Toner
- Post Shave: Dove - Men+Care Ultra-Hydra - Cream
- Fragrance: GLHF Workshop - Atriox - EdP
Atriox has some lasting power. I keep getting whiffs of it, and it's excellent. I have another Brut frag (made by Brut), but it's not as strong, doesn't last nearly as long, and is a little too sweet. Atriox is stronger, lasts way longer, and has more of the "good stuff".
This razor was so good today. I felt a high degree of confidence using it. I can see myself getting more near-wedge style razors in the future, but hollow razors are so much more ubiquitous.
I got two more old straight razors from AuctionNinja for $5 each and picked them up today. I haven't had a change to look them over yet. One of them is in a weird old leather "condom" pouch, for lack of a better description. I should throw that part away, right? The other one is in a pretty typical straight razor box -- I don't care for razor boxes but part of me thinks I should keep it.

Roam Two is such a nice dickhole. I'll be sad when I run out of this EdT. Let me know if you have a bottle that isn't being used.
