Today’s challenge soap is The Art of Shaving - Sandalwood. I had a puck of this that I gave away last year because it gave me a little bit of burn, now I’m kicking myself for letting it go just thinking of all the points I just lost!
Proraso Red, which is scented with sandalwood, is always an acceptable shave. The lather isn’t amazing by any stretch, but it gets the job done pretty easily. I also quite like the scent.

Great shave, despite this soap being pretty mid. I love the scent of it so it’s worth using, for sure. Speaking of scent, Friends to the End is amazing.

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
There isn’t a bad Seaforth! scent. This one is not exception. Wonderful leather fragrance. It has been over 3 years since this razor was honed. I noticed it only because the performance was not what a Fili 12 can deliver. It still gave me a close, comfortable shave.
