Hi @Beau Chapeau
What are your thoughts on the Goat?
I’m thinking about picking one up in the future.
Cheers.
I love it.. smooth and gives a lovely close shave.. others can't seem to get on with it, so it's a bit of a 'marmite' razor, but as I've said, I can't fault it..

Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger
Schick J3 Golden 500
Schick Super Krona
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap was face-lathered well with Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick J3 Golden 500 razor and the Schick Super Krona Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
 
SOTD - 1/6/2026

Phoenix Shaving Magi
Chisel and Hound Ivory Logo Brush - Roosevelt Edition - Fanchurian Badger
Merkur 34 INOX Stainless Steel Closed Comb 2 Piece Special Edition 1896

From the PAA website:

Scent Profile: Frankincense, Myrrh, Tobacco Absolute, Thyme, Coumarin, Chamomile, Rose, Lavender and Benzoin.

What Makes This Different than say, Other Frankincense & Myrrh Splashes?

This Aftershave/Cologne is a magical, deep blend of Frankincense & Myrrh with notes of Tobacco Absolute, Thyme, Coumarin, Chamomile, Rose, Lavender and Benzoin...quite the Christmas cocktail! This truly is an ancient, manly concoction if ever there was one and man does it have staying power!

Another thing to note is this particular juice has been "maturing" for 1 year in the mother batch!

But Why aged?

You see, each natural can contain up to 600 different molecules and may/will also react with each other in a potent, alchemical, whirling dervish. Over the course of the year the batch is agitated daily, come December, finishing ingredients are added, then it's double filtered and finally poured by hand into limited edition bottles for safe keeping & aesthetics. It truly takes time to complete this special sauce and you can tell!

As with all our AS/Colognes each bottle contains a healthy dose of natural ingredients, so much so, you'll feel the difference immediately!

Anoint yourself after your next shave this season and experience something truly religious!

Great review and pic mate.
I absolutely love SOTD when someone like yourself says what they think about the things they’re using I wish everyone was doing it.
This is just my opinion, of course.
Cheers.

Razor: Devette by tom
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Brush: JR90
Soap: Tabac

It has been a spell since I have used this little bad boy. Very close 2 pass shave.
I MISS that razor. I hope Terry is still enjoying it.
 
SOTD: 01/06/2026

Razor: Maxwell June EX
Blade: Gillette Minora, 1st use
Brush: Trotter Handcrafts Revolver / Snø Slayer
Bowl: CaYuen Workshop Diablo Bowl
Soap: Master Soap Creations / TRC Alien Croap
Aftershave: Master Soap Creations / TRC Alien Aftershave
Additional Care: Osma Alum
Additional Care: Thayers Facial Toner: Rose Petal

Today I grabbed the Maxwell June with the EX cap and MSC and TRC collab Alien.

The Maxwell June provides a great shave. Nice and close yet smooth. It surprises me every time as if it wasn’t for the audible feed back I wouldn’t be sure it was cutting. The EX is more efficient for sure but the original cap feels to me exactly the same. It’s a no brainer for the price.

Master Soap Creations and The Razor Company really did amazing with this collab! Floral, spicy, and warming this scent really is awesome for this time of year. And as always amazing performance! Please we need more collabs between these two!

An awesome shave was had. I smell and feel amazing! Have awesome shaves all!
