I have a Glacial soap here which I test-lathered already. OMG, the menthol power from it is off the charts!
I know some guys who'd never be able to handle a shave with this Glacial soap. It's passed in front of my beloved Iced Subzero soap.
My eyes are watering on the 3rd pass............gotta love it! Sometimes you just need a good smack in the face........
I have not tried the scent from the OP but I am currently using a Stirling soap (I thinkk Scotch Pine). It lathers as good as the best soaps I have ever tried and the scent, at least on the one I am currently using is wonderful. Mike's soap is very good too but when I ran out of soap, so did he and I was force to go somewhere else. That is how I found Stirling. These are great soaps!
I'm looking forward to trying some Stirling soaps. I have an order placed for the following: • Black Ice— "Our wildly-popular Anise soap is now available with over 2% menthol crystals to add some shiver to what is already one of the best shaves on the market at any price. Slap this on your face and prepare to slide." • Earl Grey — on-sale, plus I do enjoy the tea..."Soft, floral, quiet, and pleasing. Just like a warm cup of Earl Grey tea." • Almond Creme—"Delicious Marzipan is the second name for this soap.It really needs no other description, other than to say you might try to eat it. It tastes like soap, though.Don’t ask how I know…..For Men and Women." • Beer — another on-sale, not sure about smelling like beer in the morning though, flashbacks to college… "It’s a crying shame that society frowns on the thought of making a cold beer a part of your morning routine. Well, now you can ease the pain with our beer shave soap. Whip your brush on the puck and get a whiff of a fruity micro-brew that is intoxicating without being intoxicating." • Margaritas in the Arctic — had to see what all the fuss was about…. —"I can’t taste this Margarita. Probably because I’m drinking it while sitting buck-naked on top of a glacier at the north pole. My skin feels wonderful, though…"
I shaved with Stirling's Almond Creme just yesterday. Very nice stuff. Not a Cella clone but in the neighborhood. Yum.
Stirling Glacial soap is on tap for me tomorrow and I'll use the MITA at some point this coming week.
Well I almost placed an ordered, but the shipping costs where too much. I'll try there samples first.
I have only tried it a few times, but I am very impressed. A wonderful soap. I can easily see myself ordering a few pucks of these in the near future. At the moment I am not suffering from the soap AD, so I might be able to hold off it for a few weeks, maybe months
