Rooney, Floris, iKon, & a great shave

with 2 comments

I used the Style 3, size 2 shown above—the Style 3, size 1 is just for a size comparison. (2 = larger than 1) Great lather, but really just too much brush. It feels a little along the lines of one person driving a Hummer to the store: it gets you there, but it does seem a tad excessive. I like the smaller brush, perhaps because I lather on my face—but even after the lather is complete, the big brush seems too much.

The iKon did its usual job of smooth, comfortable shaving. I think the iKon is my new nominee for the razor James Bond uses: extremely efficient at getting the job done, but still provides a feeling of smoothness and comfort. It was the usual Swedish Gillette blade.

A splash of Floris JF to complement the Floris Elite soap (which is a very nice soap indeed). And now I scurry about to ready the apartment for the cleaning ladies.

  1. Can you compare the scents of JF vs Elite?

  2. It’s pretty remarkable how huge the difference in size the Rooney 1 is from the 2. I had a 1/1 in Finest and now have a 1/2 in Finest. I can’t even imagine what a 1/3 would be used for…painting a house?
