I do like this brush. When I use it after an absence from it, it takes me by surprise with its knot — somewhat firm but very soft on the face. I like a 22mm knot, but you can get the knot in 24mm as well.
The brush did a excellent job with Mystic Water’s Sandalwood Rose shaving soap, and the fragrance is an interesting combination. Three passes with the truly excellent Above the Tie S1 smoothed my face, ad a small splash of Bulgarian Rose with Lemon from Saint Charles Shave finished the job. Bulgarian Rose is a very nice fragrance indeed.
