    Look at this way, you're stocked up for a while. You were either going to buy it now or later, right?

    I wanna place an order for some un-needed shave products and some needed bath soap and shampoo bars. Ramblin Man seems to be doing well. But......

    I knew there'd be a BUT somewhere, Mr. Cawtuh.

    I actually have a tub of it. It is on deck for tomorrow, but it is a bit different than I expected. I am curious if anyone else had already tried it.

    Unless you're like some of us who buy it now and later.

    I suppose you have a valid point. I just splurge on two to three soaps, or a couple hundred blades, or a brush, you get the point and feel guilty, lol, so I stop for a little while. Plus I'm sure some of you have more disposable income than I.

    So, I was a bit surprised when the tub arrived at how similar to Glastonbury the scent was out of the tub. Not at all what I was expecting. When I lathered it, though, it chat fed quite a bit. The oakmoss and floral scents really started to come through. The soap is a very dry fougere, the cologne and AS are a bit sweeter. On the dry down the florals come out even more. Stirling's description is "powerful", and I would say this is definitely true. It is a big scent. Nicely done, but I do prefer the Ramblin Man.

    I think I would too(based on Doc Ezlovan's writeup of it).
