I do love a good boar brush, and the lather this Omega 20102 aroused from my tub of rebranded Truefitt & Hill (old formulation) was excellent. My Goodfellas’ Smile Legione Slant did an excellent job. (“Goodfellas” in honor of Ray Liotta, who starred in that Martin Scorsese movie, along with Robert de Niro and Joe Pesci — movie available now on Netflix.) This slant is quite similar to the Parker Semi-Slant in feel and performance.
A splash of Musgo Real aftershave with a couple of squirts of Hydrating Gel, and the week begins.
The tea this morning is Murchie’s Balmoral Blend: “a strong, traditional, rich blend of bright Ceylon and malty Assam teas.”
