Brush: Yaqi Casino Husky Knot
Razor: Wilkinson Sword Classic
Blade: Rapira Platinum Lux
Lather: Barbus - - Soap
Post Shave: Barbus - - Aftershave
Fragrance: 4711 - EdC

My cheapest shave, all values in Euros

Razor is 5.20 comes with a pack of 5 WS blades and is frequently on sale. It’s a mild medium razor that pairs well with efficient blades.

The Yaqi “defect” brush can be bought almost always for around 8, my experience is they never show any defects, 1 didn’t have the Yaqi logo on it…

4711 is a very lovely EdC heavy on Citrus. Doesn’t last long but can be reapplied and doesn’t project like crazy. At 11.70 for 100ml can’t complain

The Barbus soap is in my humble opinion the best you can get before spending way more. It’s 2.95 for 150g costing about 0.02 euros per g and is frequently heavily discounted.

The AS is nothing special, basically alcohol and fragrance, smells like clean laundry 1.55 for 60 so 0.03 per ml. I will say that similar and worse formulations cost more so at least it’s not “poor value”

This shave totals at 29.4 from scratch and can last a crazy long time
