Gent's, I've gotta say that I ordered full size tubs of Haverford and Stirling Gentleman with the splash and have to say, It's no my jam. I don't know what it is about it but I just can't use it. The soap works like all Stirling, awsome, but I just can't handle the scent. I used both 2 times. What should I do? Put it in a drawer and try it again later or sell-trade it? What would you do? I got 4 new samples the other day and all of them are great.
I got a sample of Haverford; the Missus said it smelled like Michael's Crafts. I used it as a shower soap. If I had a full tub of the stuff, though, I'd look to PIF it to an interested party, sell it, or trade it. I've got neither the space nor patience to hang onto something I just don't like.
I had similar on a couple and gave them away. There are too many that I really liked to use something that wasn't making it. The 2 you mention never went past sample size for me. Some people love them.
Haverford A.S. just got a Stoylin Tony nomination. There will be 5 more Nomination Days throughout the year-plenty of time for me to think about Hav.
I see that Stirling just added four more scents to the line! I've been working through their Bay Rum and a sample of Exec. Man, which I really enjoy. Anyone thinking of purchasing one of the new scents?

I only read the description for the Evie scent. But, I don't really care as long as they smell good. Well, maybe a little
One that is considered unisex that is dropping out of the lineup is Tuscany. I have always liked it and so did one of my daughters. I bought inventory for us both. I'll probably get some of the bath soaps for her to try.
