    I have Stirling Soap's Pumpkin Spice. I couldn't tell you how it is yet. My wife likes it and uses it for her purposes.

    Pumpkin spice really is not the best Fall scent... It is more of a cliche Fall scent.

    I think the best Fall scent that is out there is Hallows by Barrister and Mann. Hallows is so much of a Fall scent you really smell the leaves turning colors. Then in Darkfall by Declaration Grooming you can smell those leaves being raked up and burnt in the rural areas...

    But if you really must have Pumpkin; Pumpk'n 3.14 by Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements (PAA) is a good one. Also Van Yulay has a few good ones, but I'd go with their Coffee Pumpkin Latte.

    Just so you know. If you use too much pumpkin spice fragrance women in yoga pants will try to stick paper straws in you while instagramming on their iPhones.

    PAA also offers the Atomic Pumpkin, which is a pumpkin spice bay rum. It is nice in that the pumpkin spice is strong at the beginning but then fades into the Atomic Age Bay Rum, which IMO is the best Bay Rum out there.

    I don't know if you get the added benefit of women in yoga pants chasing you around with straws, though.

    I don't like shaving with soap that is supposed to smell like food. There, I've said it.

    I think I would make an exception if I ever came across a soap from India that smelled like goat vindaloo.

    You're in luck @Campion....many soaps we've encountered through TSD posts don't pass the "food" test. I should admit that some do, though. And welcome to TSD! :)

    Depending on how you stand with scents of wood, leather, and barbershop(to name a few)those work well in the fall&winter.

    Well trying new stuff, you are in luck;

    Looking at their site Van Yulay already has some of the Pumpkin stuff available in sample form.

    Once Fall comes around PAA will have their stuff available in samples as well. PAA will release out a few other Fall scents like Will-O-The-Wisp (Dark), Blue Samhain (Syrupy Sweet Pumpkin), Grove (Cranberry), Ciderhouse 5 (Apple Cider), etc, etc.

    Once released Maggards will have samples of Hallows by Barrister and Mann, and Darkfall by Declaration Grooming. Maggards will also have samples of a lots of the other Fall releases not mentioned here. Barrister and Mann issues out another one in Fall that is a Dark Leather that I really like called Leviathan.
