Valobra

with 3 comments

The Lucretia Borgia synthetic bristle brush worked up a superb lather from the soap deposited on my beard by the Valobra shave stick. The 1940′s Aristocrat, with a Swedish Gillette blade, did a very smooth shave, with a splash of Arlington a fine finish.

  1. That is one of my favorite aftershaves. The subtle scent has surprising longevity. The misses could smell it one me 1 hour later and likes it too. DR Harris adds some glycerin and a disinfectant as well as a touch of menthol. The packaging is tops too.

  2. That razor is actually the much more desirable Diplomat, not an Aristocrat.

  3. You’re right. I do recognize it: more of the Diplomat handle is knurled, right?
