Given what I saw of the razor’s edge (the title of a great book by W. Somerset Maugham, btw) yesterday, I expected a great shave today. This allowed me to really focus on Vida’s soap which I think is exceptional. The history of the scent is extremely well chosen for us shaving nerds who enjoy such things, and the Darkwing base creates such a terrific lather that I suspect none of us are left wanting. Using the MOAR BOAR to complete this setup is, of course, the perfect fit (IMNSHO).
