    I really enjoy Iced Pineapple. Used it again this morning. I'm working on finishing up a soap sample and will be using it exclusively until then. The menthol level is pretty low for me. I like the blast of the glacials a lot. I feel Iced Pineapple has a refreshing tingle of menthol. Terrific scent.

    I hear you. I don’t even really think of the Iced or chilled soaps as hardly mentholated anymore. I remember when I thought Proraso was mentholated.

    Thanks. I missed that when I purchased the soaps. I am glad that it is just more menthol and not a reaction to the scent.

    Well, the TSA thug changed my plans about using Port au Prince. :angry019: Never had that problem before. It's also the first time they pulled out my razor to see if there was a blade. There wasn't. I checked those.

    Fortunately I also brought my sample of electric sheep. That should hold me for two weeks.

    They stole your soap?

    If the destination is anywhere but Hawaii, I’m driving!!!!

    Africa, actually. Driving aint an option.

    I tried to convince him that it's not a gel. Might as well have tried to convince him that I'm Elvis.

    The icing on the cake is that I had no problem in Indianapolis. They even eyeballed the razor there too, and moved the soap to get to it. It was because of a screw up that we had to go back through security at Dulles.

    Sorry to hear your report. I have a Hawaii trip in my future, and will bring my lowest end gear and some Arko. I love giving, but hate thieves!

    Unbeknownst to me, when I flew out to Denver and back I was put on "pre-TSA"....the screening was pretty routine, and I was allowed to keep my shoes on.

    The INCONSTISTENCY of the various TSA'a is what gets me...

    In order to avoid a huge rant, I’ll just say that I’m glad my career doesn’t force me to fly, and with the 40 years or less I have to vacation, there’s more than enough to see in the good ol’ USA. I prefer to leave my money in the “flyover states” rather than with the airlines, while actually seeing and experiencing our grand nation.

    Yes, I have some control issues........

    Back to Stoylin...:).........the humidity is returning, thus my SOTD for Tuesday(confirmed later)could be a triple-play for Doc Ezlovan and crew.

    After two days of Lemony Orange, I grabbed my tub of Glacial Black Cherry last night.

    I’m not crazy about the scent but love the consistent Stirling performance and glacial hit.

    I think that would be my exact reaction to the GBC, too.

    Haven't been here in a while.

    Just received my first 2 glacial soaps. Lemony orange and lemon. Both smell amazing.
