  • Brush: Zenith 506B MB (27 mm × 51 mm Manchurian badger)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels 14 (8/8", extra hollow ground, carbon steel)
  • Lather: D.R. Harris – Marlborough
  • Post Shave: D.R. Harris – Marlborough

A warm and woody evening shave with new-to-me Marlborough. The soap is not very strongly scented, and with my stuffy nose I could barely smell it. Luckily I got the splash, too, and its a delightful warm woody fragrance strong enough to overcome my cold. I can see why u/LoudMusicBoy likes this and I will be coming back to it during the colder months.
