For my first foray into Stirling products, this is the order I placed at Top of the Chain up here in Canada: Soap samples: Vanilla Sandlewood Almond Creme Gin & Tonic Lemon Chill Piacenzo Pharoah's Creamsicle Arkadia Sandpiper Deep Blue Sea Baker Street Aftershave samples: Stirling Spice Agar And a bottle of unscented menthol Aftershave Balm I'm a pretty old guy in my late 60's but feel like a kid getting all this stuff that I can't wait to try and already have 10 or 12 more picked out for another order in a couple months!
Well in the last ten days I’ve have five shaves. I’m getting the hang of things faster than I expected. Quite a few little weepers and general rough feeling afterwards for the first four, but today went almost as well as a right handed shave........albeit slower and less enjoyable. My scent choices so far were Haverford twice, Mountain Man, Executive Man, and today being “date night” was DETON-8. Matching splashes each time, and a modest dog of Spice Bomb too for this evening. Ironically my wife has been fighting that bug going around and her sinuses are plugged up. At least I know how great I smelled. Hardware has been the forgiving 34C for the last three shaves, and a different brush every day............my Simpson Best Commodore X2 tonight. I’m making it work, but I’m really looking forward to getting my right paw back in the game.
You have great taste, sir! I've used 6 of them. Here they are in order of preference, though honestly, they're all winners: Baker Street Arkadia Sandpiper Piacenza Vanilla Sandalwood Pharaoh's Dreamsicle The last three could change on a minute by minute basis. First three? Set in stone
Mad props for getting it done with the left, sir! And Great scent choices. And here's to a speedy and complete recovery.
Went through the order list again. Guess I forgot I also ordered samples of Ozark Mountains and Mountain Man, so definitely got plenty to go thru and find favs!
Y'know, I don't mean to shock you Tim but I've read some of your Stoylin reviews. That settles it...you're a fan .
