    It's nice to see that Sandpiper can be enjoyed year round. In fact, I just put it an order for the aftershave, with menthol.(Second sentence added a few days after the first).

    I placed an order last night for soap samples of Glacial Lemon Chill, Iced Pineapple, and Grapefruit with menthol. I also got sample splashes in those three scents plus Bergamot Lavender, which I've been interested in trying. Looking forward to trying these menthol soaps out!

    I'll be using the Glacial Wintergreen trio tomorrow morning. Le Grand Freeze once again!

    I went with the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo, and for the duration of the shave all I smelled was menthol. Lots and lots of menthol. The feel was great, the chill was there, but for the first time I was disappointed in a Stirling soap scent. Or lack thereof. I did get the Sharp Dressed Man aftershave, and it was everything I hoped it would be. So that helps, but I really wanted that scent through the whole shave. Tonight is Iced Pineapple, and I can already declare that scent strength will not be an issue with this one.

    @LOOT brings up a fine point: don't skimp out on the bath soaps. It is inhumane. Seriously...They add a greater level of enjoyment for no more cost than the cheap crap most of use.
    Pair up with a Stirling soap.

  11. Same for me on Eskimo Tuxedo yesterday. Loved the shave and feel of the soap, but the scent was lacking. Shaved with Iced Pineapple tonight and it was heavenly

    Where's the executive man a aftershave, iced Pineapple soap and Aftershave, and MITA soap and aftershave?

    Ha, we seem to be on the same rotation. I shaved with Iced Pineapple tonight as well, and it was incredible. I had doubts as to whether I would like a fruity scent, but I loved it. It actually paired nicely with the Sharp Dressed Man splash. I think the Eskimo Tuxedo may go on the trade block though, I'm sad to say. It performs wonderfully, but I shave as much for scent as anything, and it didn't do it for me.

    I was so thrilled with the Glacial Wintergreen's freeze that even though I was BBS after two passes I did a quick third pass to get some extra menthol goodness on my face. Talking about the Glacial Eskimo soap I have a tub which is coming to the end and a brand-new one. Both are from last year and although the menthol scent is extremely powerful I can definitely smell the Sharp Dressed Man scent very clearly.

    Had a great shave today with Dunshire soap. Nice finish with Dunshire splash with added menthol. I worked in a lot of water and got a tremendous lather - shiny, slick, and well-hydrated. Stirling soap is absolutely top-notch. Looking forward to my summer samples to arrive soon!

    4 Tubs of Summer showed up today! Island Man, South Padre, Weekend in Malibu, and Spearmint. All with aftershave and balm, some leftover from last year. I'm so excited to pack up my winter/cologne scents. WiMalibu is a HIT! I lover the wonderfully different scents you guys bring to market Rod. Thanks.

    @ezlovan Where is the Spearmint balm? Is it missing from the website or did you not bring it back this year?

    It's a lucky thing I have a Spearmint balm from last year. I'll also want to get a Glacial Lemon Chill balm, as well as some bath soaps.
