Nice one Chris. I’ve been getting into gourmand fragrances recently and have added a few to my collection. Wife loves them. It’s been cooler here the last week, below 0c, so a perfect opportunity to wear them. Have a great rest-of-the-week!

Many thanks Alan. Like I said I don’t like a lot of them but I would definitely recommend this one. Very realistic, they got the scent spot on. It’s warming up here slowly. Put you in a better mood 😂 Hope the rest of your week goes well for you. Stay smooth and stay safe 👍

Nice shave Chris. Yesterday I used the Parker Variant @ 3.5 w/ My-Blades Silver. MacDuffs Spring Cabin w/ dscosmetic synthetic. Proraso Green splash. I also managed to slice a zit clean off my neck. Should have checked beforehand. The one time I tried a Lord blade was the one that came with my L6 and it was the last. Kept tugging and was very rough. Could be the quality has gone down. If you manage to find your L6, try it with a My-Blades Silver or Wilkinson Sword. Maybe try this Concord with another blade too. From what I've seen online most people compare the L6 shape to some of the Merkur or Edwin Jagger razors. I might look into picking one of those up for a similar shave with better build quality. Have a great rest of your week!

I’m sorry that the razor and blade failed you. I’ve had bad shaves before either because a blade I tried out sucked or because I didn’t shave properly. It’s not like every shave will be great, but I’m always confident that my shaves will be better next time after a bad one. My SOTD today will be of the KCG razor with the Elios blade, Stirling Barbershop soap, Maggards B&W synthetic brush, Clubman Pinaud AS, and the Afta balm. The Laser Ultra blade from my last shave was both sharp and smooth and gave me a good shave with no nicks and irritation. The Elios blade is the last blade on deck for me to try out for now. I have more blades lined up to try out, but I want to take a break for a while and get back to normal after that. Have a good one!

Gemütlichkeit is a friendly, warm atmosphere and environment in which people feel comfortable. It is characterized by balance, security, freedom from conflict and carefreeness. It brings calm to the hectic pace. Coziness does not tolerate excitement, arguments or intrusive worries. In art, the depiction of coziness or freedom from conflict can seem kitschy.

Pretty good shave considering Chris! I guess the razor doesn't like the Lord Platinums. Those blades have been good for me, but you might of had a dud luke ypu said. We have been have water softener problems here for almost a week, so my shave have been pretty limited. My last SOTD: Barbasol, Schick injector with a Personna blade, and Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic splash and balm. Have a good one! Steve

Thanks Steve. At least it was a decent work shave. Once my skin calmed down and the hair retracted it didn't feel to bad. Going to try the razor again with a different blade and try that blade again in a different razor. Sorry to hear about your water issues, hope they get it sorted soon. A decent shave yourself regardless. Take it easy Steve. Have a great week. Stay smooth and stay safe 👍

What is the reason for "Groomatorium" shown on the label? Is this soap associated with the online shave products retailer called Groomatorium?

@@CBShaves ..... And there it is! Upon rechecking the groomatorium site, the soap product is listed there. I did not know that some products from there would also include "Groomatorium" on the label (as this example, the Chiseled Face product). (or is it that just the product was bought from Groomatorium?)

You know , the one thing that spoils your channel for me , is the third pass with accompanying puck ups . A real shaver can nail it a maximum of two passes

Hey Chris! Sorry to see that you had a poor shaving performance with that Concord. I love mine! I usually use a Gillette Wilkinson Sword saloon pack blade with it. My shaves come out great. Try it with a different blade and see where that takes you. As for SOTD, I used a Gillette Old Type 1920s razor (English made!), vintage Williams Mug Soap, boar brush, witch hazel, Afta aftershave skin conditioner, Skin Bracer, and a generic skin moisturizer. The blade I used was an Astra superior stainless. Wow, what a close and comfortable shave I received!! The razor I picked up from an antique store for just $5 US dollars!! It's hard to beat vintage items! The quality is unsurpassed by today's standards!! Thanks for your video! Cheers to a better shave on the next! JimG

Thanks Jim, you can’t win them all. But to be honest I think it was more to do with the blade. I’ll try it again soon with a different blade. The Superior blade is the best out of the Astras in my opinion. I have a puck of the vintage Williams that I haven’t used yet. Love Skin-bracer excellent scent. Wow! That’s a steal for that razor. Let’s face it Gillette got it right. The next shave will be much better. See you then buddy. Stay smooth and stay safe 👍

Great shave Chris, bad blade choice for the Concord I think. Jim is correct, the Gillette Wilkinson Sword saloon pack blades are fantastic with the Concord. The Concord is basically a more aggressive Tech, slightly more than the Lord L6 even.

@CBShaves Oh that's nothing! About a month and a half ago I purchased a 5 razor, 2 shave brush lot for $27.22! It included a Gillette single ring and the grand prize...a Gillette Double ring!! The double ring has zero cracks as well!! If you break it down, I only paid $4 for it!!!!
