Jeff, if I had to guess, it is cold like MITA. Enough to be noticed but no where near freezing. Like sticking your face in the freezer to get ice cream. In, find it, out. That is the feeling.
The scents are different. Spearmint smells like strong spearmint chewing gum and Wintergreen smells like strong wintergreen chewing gum with a very nice minty note. They are both equally frigid.
Stirling Lovers, I just went through all the scent description page and grouped them by their release seasons. Hopefully this will be a reminder list what to look out for at each time of the year. Enjoy and don't miss those once a year scents!!! Let me know if I missed any. Frank
Is Pharaoh's Dreamsicle a seasonal scent? I purchased a sample of it in Feb, I believe but it is listed on the website as a Spring/Summer seasonal scent.
this is what I am thinking of ordering this week: Full Summer tubs: Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo Glacial Spearmint (preferred) but will take Glacial Wintergreen. Preference is only b/c Spearmint is natural and Wintergreen, I think is man made or at least that is what the internet says. Iced Pineapple Island Man Pharoah's Dreamsicle Weekend in Malibu Sample pucks Glacial Obsidian Glastonbury Port-au-Prince South Padre Do we know if these will come in sample pucks? Of course, this is without the Standard Line scents I also love but only have sample pucks (for now ).
Where are you getting this release list from? If a soap is in regular production, meaning not a one batch run type thing, there will be samples.
It was from their scent description page https://www.stirlingsoap.com/product-scent-descriptions/ On each, they list the season available. Yes, standard line I assume is available all year around. Could be an old page too.
No, I meant the scents you want to order. I haven't seen him say which ones he's actually coming out with this time around.
I have one menthol laced soap - Stirling Orange Chill. I used it one time in January and almost died. I will try it again when the ambient temperature is over 90 deg F. The last time that happened here in the far Northwest was about 5 years ago. But when it happens again - I'll try a another shave with menthol.
Now this was my shave today: Stirling Barbershop. This and Executive Man are my top two Stirling soaps. I enjoy their Bay Rum very much as well. But then I like all bay rum soaps. If you have not tried Barbershop yet - get a sample - I think many of you will enjoy it. Lots of vanilla notes.
Barbershop smells just like talc to me, which is a good thing in my opinion. I always thought I was big stuff when I was a kid and the barber would hit me with talc following a haircut. Good memories. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
I'm going to duplicate the super-freeze I had today with another Glacial scent tomorrow. Eskimo Tuxedo - it's an awesome menthol atom bomb!
Stirling Port Au Prince is now officially in the house, complete with a complimentary bath soap sample. Any guesses as to what I am shaving with tonight? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
