    Happy Stirling September, gang! I'd say it's pretty timely that we saw Doc Ezlovan's video recently(when he was at the Maggard Meetup). A goal I can set for myself will be to finish all my A.S. samples by the 30th.

    When you get to "X", you can do a repeat of "Xecutive Man"! :)

    Don't have that one. Tried a sample of it, and it just wasn't really my thing. Nothing wrong with it, just not a minnow flipper.

    It's my favorite of my current sample set, but I look forward to Gatlinburg and Mtn. Man. The Lime was OK, but I'd like the full-size bottle better.

    I must say that the mentholated pre-shave soap is really nice. It's not icy-cold but it does give a good cooling effect as well as being very moisturizing. It sure makes shaving easy.

    You mean, the ones slightly different than the Glacials, Meeter, etc...?

    The menthol from this is not so strong, but it's still there.

    I need help on something-I just received the "Imvitation To Review Products" e-mail from Doc Ezlovan and Mandy, but in my case I can only review one of the 4 A.S. samples for now=haven't tried the other three. Would they mind if I waited til I did all 4? Maybe I'll just contact them directly on it,so they know my situation.

    I am sure it is just fine to wait, Paul. They are used to people taking their time to decide about a product. I have gone months, and it is all good. Use them in good time, and then write up what you think.

    I'll give myself a mega-freeze tomorrow with the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap. After that, the Glacial Unscented balm followed by the Rubby Dubby Doo!

    My next shave will be with Sharp Dressed Man. Haven't used it yet and am looking forward to it! That could be later today or perhaps tomorrow. No schedule with the holiday weekend.

    Almond yesterday, to kick off an all Stirling September. Figured I would start it off with the proper brush too.

    Not going to use them alphabetically after all I guess. Have a lot of traveling to do this month, and some of these are in tubes, so I'm saving them.

    Up next, Coconut Lime.

    I am just about the worst person imaginable to describe scents. So take this question with a grain of salt. Is there a leather element in this scent? I pick up something akin to that, which I like a lot. Complex and enjoyable scent and great shave in the end.
