      That's true, and the price! However, the Merkurs tend to be a bit more aggressive. It all depends on what you like! (I have both, and I keep my Jaeger in my gym bag, and Merkur at home)

              Portland General Store has some good stuff. I alternate between 'Whisky' and 'Wood'.

                  Not very original, but I like it… 200 ml. (6.7 oz) bottle cause it's cheap that way  😃

                    I typically wear either Guerlain Vetiver, Voyou, or Sous Le Vent. Almost out of Voyou and the Sous Le Vent is way too expensive and rare for daily use so more commonly the Vetiver or occasionally Geir Ness.

                            just finished up my first DE shaving experience and I am thrilled. Thanks everyone for the solid advice in this thread!

                            The set up I ended up with
                            Edwin Jagger DE89 w/ derby blades (they came with it)
                            Truefitt and Hill shave cream
                            ST badger brush
                            Truefitt and Hill aftershave lotion

                            Stoked!!!
