    Chris personifies minimalism. It's admirable. I'm too ADD for that nonsense.

    Jason, I've tried three of the new scents so far. I'd rank them so far as Green, Kaboom, and Haverford, in that order of preference. Black Pepper Lime is on tap for tomorrow.

    Thank you, Perry. The Canadian vendor who stocks Stirling products has all of the Black Friday scents now. I was curious about a few of them- the Green and the Kaboom that you have, as well as the Deep Blue. There used to be a 2nd vendor (Canadian Beard and Blade, ex CanadianBladeCo) that is closing up shop. I'm bummed as they were also the only Canadian vendor I knew of for Jeeves as well. I did get one last order in with them to take advantage of their close out deals, but I was on it too late. Have a Jeeves Mountain Rain splash and Fine Platinum soap inbound. Much of the Stirling stuff was already sold out. I had an Arkadia splash (to match L'Orange Noir) in the order, but apparently it was a mistake on their part to list it as not sold out.

    Jason, Brooks Brothers 1818 is classic Barbershop fragrance. Maybe the best!

    @Linuxguile could fill in about Deep Blue. I really like both Green and Kaboom. Both are cologne-based scents. Green is lighter and more subtle than Kaboom, but Kaboom in itself isn't too strong.

    Too bad about the vendors you mentioned, and that the Arkadia splash didn't pan out. That's a great scent.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    The fact that I just got linked to Fuzzy as being a person who can lather New Williams and have demonstrated that is almost surreal. Seriously. My head hurts just a bit. I can't argue with the fact I was finally able to get it to lather, but the fact that I was an adamant Williams hater for so long just makes that sentence seem impossible to exist.

    As for the post count this month so far. Yep, we're the guys right here. I've done the math on the numbers already and if the pace we're on holds we are going to blow up the record with ease. And, while this really isn't a "record chasing" endeavor, it's nice to see how much everyone is enjoying and learning. Amazing what having a few newbies join up does for the pace around here. It's a repeating pattern.

    Glad someone noticed that. :happy088: I'm curious too as that usually means something good is about to happen.

    @jtspartan I'll be shaving with Deep Blue Sea early next week. To me out of the 8 BF scents it is the one that stands out the most and is why I picked it to be one of the first. Kaboom was a lot lighter of a scent then I though it would be. The reviews that I watched about the cologne that it is based on all say that it is a powerhouse scent that can be smelled across the room, not the case with the soap. Maybe the AS is scented a little more strongly.

    The Kaboom aftershave seemed to get stronger as the day went on, which is odd.
