Shave of the Day: Monday June 1, 2020


Razor: Karve C Plate 
Blade: Polsilver (5th use)
Brush: Turn-N-Shave “Serpent” 
Cream: Arko Cooling 
Aftershave: Nivea Deep

Not the same level of cooling of Proraso Green but performance is on par. Scent comes off clean and soapy. 

Nivea Deep has a very enjoyable masculine vanilla and bourbon scent with a strength of at least 8/10. I would go as far as saying this is the best commercially available aftershave in regards to scent.
