Description : This deep, spicy, oriental scent has a rich upfront blend of Indian sandalwood, cinnamon, coriander, and juniper berry. In the middle, it has lavender, orange, rosemary, and ginger and it's rounded out by tonka bean and vanilla. Must be the sandalwood
Thanks for the compliment! Tough comparison. Two of the three have different levels of menthol and Pharaoh's Dreamsicle doesn't have any. To my nose Satsuma is the sweetest of the three. Orange chill smells simply of oranges. Pharaoh's Dreamsicle is the most complex of the three. I'm not very good at describing scents, your best bet would be to pick up samples.

Thanks for the feedback. I've actually got samples of Pharaoh's and Orange Chill (and I really enjoy both of them), but I've yet to pull the trigger on a Satsuma sample. I think I may have to add Satsuma to my next order! Cheers.
Most all those orange A/S lose their scent after the first half hour. So for Satsuma I went for the EDT. Am really glad I did. Stretches it out on my skin to maybe 2 and half hrs. Still not the longest time, but better than 20 or 30 minutes.
I've gotten whiffs of Satsuma AS, the next day.....not saying everyone else will. It is the longest lasting citrus I have.

Good to know Edison. I love citrus scents in general, but it's always a challenge that most of their scents don't last long. It seems pineapple and lemons last a little longer than orange and limes, or is that my imagination?
You can actually call me Bill if you want. I agree with you on your longevity point. A while back, the founder of this thread got Rod to make a special run of an old scent (Glacial Lemony Orange). I have not heard of anyone who did not love it. I still have some, but it fades long before Satsuma, which is a pleasant alternative. In modern day "mask prison" my citrus stuff is getting more attention. Not all the scents I love are as 'mask friendly'.
A question for all of the menthol fans out there: do you find that the glacial soaps are suitable for everyday use, or are they more suited for once in a while? I am trying to get an idea of just how strong the menthol is, and my menthol experience is limited. Just for reference, I have used and quite enjoyed Proraso white, Proraso green, Stirling Orange Chill, and and Stirling Iced Pineapple. Thanks in advance for your help! gcc
i only use my lemon chill glacial on really hot days for the most part,but it is very strong menthol wise compared to proraso .the glacial is a step or 2 stronger than stirling mentholated..
I use Glacial and menthols regardless of the season. For me, they are more tied to the scent. Look at Stirling's Frost Drops, a few drops in any soap before you go in there with the brush. Make it as active or inactive as you wish.
