    I think he tried it twice before and wasn't quite pleased with it and sold it both times. So now he is trying it for a third time. Crazy ...

    Oh OK. Yes, I;'d say the C word suffices here. Up to now, I can't imagine going for the same product I just sold(or flipped as has been my case with most products I didn't like). That's why I'm really trying to focus on buying products I know I will like and sticking with them to the end. It's a little different with some of those that have been PIFed my way....some have been flipped(sorry fellas, but thanks for allowing me to experience them).

    It looks a little odd-like crunched up tunafish. Y'know, the Barbershop soap looked like that too, and I actually called Doc Ezlovan about it. He said "ahhh, that's normal, just dive right in"(and went on to explain why it looks like that). . I dove right in and the rest is history. That's what I'll do tomorrow with bOs

    Me too!

    How can I not participate in the projected next Big Winner of the Stoylin/Turner Awards!

    Can't make a projection yet, but I like the new name for the awards :). Having said that, I'll stick with Tony, though, until they have a "Turner" award in the fine arts area. Then I'll make the switch faster than you can say "uh". :).

    Well, the first BoS shave is in the books. Did its usual Stoylin clean fresh job. I would have to say the scent is "different" than most others I've tried. I think I came on too hard with the aftershave, thus it took time to blend in and give me smoothness. But I think that's happened with other Stoylin aftershaves, also. I was VERY impressed with the feel of the shave-like I was shaving ice. Razor "moved right along" at a nice clip. Glad to have BoS.

    I’m trying to decide what to use for my Menthol Monday shave tomorrow between:

    Glacial Lemon Chill
    Glacial Black Cherry
    Glacial Spearmint

    Any recommendations?

    Lemon Chill, so you can prepare me for my purchase of same for next summer. I think that hand-soap freezer I had a month or so ago had a Spearmint scent.

    Paul, maybe next time you use BoS you should plan a trip to the Piggly Wiggly and see what the ladies think? You might be pleasantly surprised:) I know I don't count but I definitely think BoS os Stoylin Tony material.

    I too am looking for Glacial for next summer and I was also thinking of Lemon Chill along with a couple others.

    Alright boys, here's the skinny... Yes, Paul, I have owned Glastonbury 2 previous times. (one previous time, the AS as well). Today, I received, yes for the THIRD time a tub of the Glastonbury and the matching AS. I just completed a palm-lather and I can honestly say...this batch #306 AH is by far, more pleasing to the nose than my prior two tubs. Now, we need Rod @ezlovan to weigh in here, but I am going to go out on a limb and say that this latest batch has be "tweaked". I am keeping this one. It has a intriguing and beguiling scent.

    I wouldn't put it past the Doc to have done that. (tweaking action).

    John what is that about...that you "don't count". You like my mention of Stoylin "cologne dupes"-that qualifies you.
