Shave of the Day - 2025 (26)

Pre-shave: Hot flannel, Valobra Glicerlanolina
Brush: Forgotten Art "Tarkine" shoat
Soap: Extro Bergamotto di Calabria
Razor: Atelier Durdan Vestige
Blade: Personna GEM Stainless
Post-shave: TND witch hazel, homebrew moisturiser, La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 50+ Invisible Fluid, Oxford & Cambridge cologne

When @silverlifter generously offered to send me a sample of this Extro Bergamotto cream, I was quick to accept, and I can unreservedly say this stuff is really nice. I'm normally a load-from-the-puck kind of guy, but with this soft stuff I scoop a little into my bowl with my thumbnail, otherwise it'll all be gone in one morning. Anyone who likes their soaps to have a strong scent will be disappointed with the Bergamotto, as the scent is quite subtle and restrained. That suits me just fine, and come next year, I'm going to go shopping for some of my very own. Thanks @silverlifter! Shave of the Day - 2025 (27)

It speaks the same language as NO Italian Summer, but the Extro whispers what the NO is shouting. Shave of the Day - 2025 (29)

Thank you but the handle doesn't work too good for me. Too heavy and the knurling is thin. I am using a Shield ti and it's much better.
