Taking a short break from the Personna 74 which has 38 uses just to make sure I'm not missing anything. The WSP "Rustic" soap base is pretty much garbage, but Black Amber Vanille smells really great. GLS compliments it really well.

Verdict? Have you grown too accustomed to the P74?

The verdict is I'm not missing anything! Granted, Personna Lab Blue have a sweet spot for me after shave 3 or 4, but I just wanted to compare the 38-use blade to something I'm familiar with. The P74 is still close and comfortable, and the overall feel is similar enough to the new blade.
