Great photo! The pattern of the tub reflecting perfectly in the R41 and matching nicely with its knurling is just superb composition 👌🏻

I can't say enough good things about AG 1889. I used it all of August. It's really worth getting a decant of Guerlain Jicky if you can. The soap and splash lean towards the fragrance, but the real thing lets you know why it has been around so long.

I need to look for a decant of Jicky, but until then, I agree that AG 1889 is amazing
