    Another item was "knocked over" yesterday(besides my shave soap)...the Sharp Dressed Man, with the slightly broken cap. I don't think anything spilled out, though.

    Ha! I feel your pain. I’ve knocked over and broken my SDM cap twice! JB Weld fixed it the first time, and electricians tape is barely working the second. I keep the bottle in the fridge to minimize evaporation. The bottle is just about empty (finally) and I have a new one on deck.

    Apparently SDM is an “at risk” scent.

    Mine was PIFed by someone-I didn't order it directly from Doc Ezlovan. Probably doesn't make a difference though.

    This way you can compare how close Sandpiper is to the real YSL

    Might not be a bad idea for these WARM October days in Massachusetts-that's right, not Alabama.

    I wonder if the same can be said of Spice. To me, Doc Ezlovan did a very good job cloning that classic(Shulton, that is).

    i may have to try that out .they make spice aftershave as well?

    They do indeed..check the reviews of it on the website. As for me, I love the soap, but there's an issue I have with the aftershave-I mean, it smells just like Shulton should, but as of now, my skin can't negotiate it that comfortably.

    I remember we discussed the Wintergreen, and you said you could pick up a scent. To me, it was like shaving with "Ice Cube Soap". Nothing but the freeze. Got the job done of course-I'll admit that.

    Ya LADIES AND GENTLEMEN:

    On this date we stand halfway between the previous Stoylin 2020 Tony Awards Nomination Day, and the final one before the big showdown-the Stoylin Tony Awards Best In Show on New Years Day, 2020. With this in mind I have a few comments:

    -I'm drumming up the idea that for each of the 2021 Tony Awards Nomination Days, I'll have the winner(of course) AND a runner-up. That way on Best In Show Day 2022, 6 winners and 6 runners-up will be in line. What an exciting time NY Day 2022 will be for Stoylin Soaps.!

    -Just this morning I saw in the website that Doc&Nurse Ezlovan will be doing something pertaining to Coffee for next year. They didn't say "WHEN" next year, but I'm sure that was part of the surprise. My reaction to this pleasantry to look forward to is to announce a policy of "swapping horses in midstream"(as the saying goes)by declaring that unlike the current rule, the coffee addition(plus any others they come up with) can be eligible for the Best In Show of the same year, but ONLY IF introduced before the 3rd Tony Nomination day, which would be in June. That allows for enough time, I would think, for it to be a part of the already great Stoylin lineup. If introduced after the 3rd niminations, it's "wait til next year(for eligibility,) baby".

    -The products I deemed ineligible for this year (BoS, Triumph, Haverford and Hipster)will indeed be eligible next year.
