    Christmas Season, Day 3. Spicy Sunday for the win. Old Spice is another fragrance that reminds me of Christmas.

    Prep: Hot Shower and Bloom/Lather Building Water
    Soap: Stirling Spice
    Razor: Blackland Blackbird Brass (OC and SB)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Razor
    Blade: Nacet (2)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Blade (2)
    Brush: Zenith Boar
    AS: Old Spice (US)
    ASB: Stirling Spice
    EdC: Old Spice (US)

    Just a rich and thick lather that is the signature of Stirling was in the bowl today. I couldn't get enough. I was actually contemplating a 4th and 5th pass.

    I hope everyone is keeping an eye out for fat men in red and white suites.

    Yes I'm sure. But my question suggested the possibility that La Nuit de l"Homme doesn't resemble itself. (chuk yuk yuk).

    Monday starts a full month of Ozark Mountain use. The scent reminds me of the holidays. It's not intended as a holiday scent, but it certainly sways that way for me. I quite enjoy it!

    Have you done this before, Perry? A full month with the same soap?

    Yep, many times. I've concentrated on soaps before to finish them off and sometimes that has taken more than a month. Last December I used Ozark Mountain the whole month.

    Wow.....as I've been saying, I find it a real struggle to get to 3 days w/same., although I manage to at times. I just feel I want to "get to that next one".

    Below is a list of the Black Friday specials from Stirling.

    Shave Soaps & Aftershave Splashes

    We started a bit of a tradition a few years ago where we craft scents specifically for Black Friday. These are scents you won't any other time of the year. Some of them have been such successful favorites that we bring them back later as a full line (I'm looking at you, Triumph!) while others fade gracefully into the memory books. This year is like that but THERE'S MORE so keep reading for the details.


    If you're new to our Black Friday releases, this part is for you. We offer 3oz Shave Soaps that are hot-poured into our signature green 4oz jars. We also have 2oz Aftershave Splashes in green glass bottles with an orifice reducer and silver cap (as pictured). Both Shave Soap and Aftershaves are $8 each and they are available in the following scents:

    Alighieri (Based on Dior Farhenheit)

    Evergreen Forest

    Iced Coffee

    Iniquity for Her (Based on Gucci Guilty for Women)

    Iniquity for Him (Based on Gucci Guilty Pour Homme)

    Lavender Sage

    Scarn (Based on Dior Sauvage)

    Stirling Green (Based on Polo Green)

    Tangerine

    **Please note that while these ARE limited-time scents, we have plenty in stock.

    **Please see the product pages for scent descriptions**

    That Double Duck boar knot is calling me. But it’s $85 (where I’ve seen it). Are you paying for the quality of the knot or bristles? Or just the whole package? Thx,

    Also, anyone find the EDT’s to perform, well, not that great?

    I have three samples and haven't used them much, so I don't feel like I can offer much opinion. Do you feel they don't project much?
