Yesterday was Red Eye. I do enjoy the Polo scents and Red Intense is no exception. I do find it also pairs well with Polo Red, which was chosen for the cologne today. Glad I have a puck's worth. I will enjoy this one in my collection. Today was City Slicker. Also a nice cologne type scent. As Rod and Amanda state this masculine blend of amber, patchouli, oakmoss, sandalwood, grapefruit, and bergamot make us want to round up the cattle. I really enjoy it. One thing I love about Stirling, it is really easy to buy soaps - highly available, excellent lather in all aspects and it is nearly impossible to find a scent I do not like.
Well, friends, the time is approaching....13 days to go before we find out Nomination #3 for the 2019 Stoylin Tony Awards. Just to refresh-#1 was Gentleman(both aftershave and soap), #2 was Naked&Smooth soap and Sharp Dressed Man aftershave.
And I'm sure it keeps getting tougher because ezlovan keeps coming up with new great scents. You the man though Paul. I'm sure you are up to it. Can't wait.
My Stirling order arrived yesterday so I’m smelling exceptionally awesome today at work with matching Piacenza AS and deodorant. Tomorrow will probably be the same tactic with Sandpiper.
Stirling Green came up in the rotation today. It was a bittersweet day. It is my last Stirling soap for a rather long while (91 scents all together [32 of which are Stirling]). It was a great way to end the run though.
MITA called my name tonight, so I obliged, and followed it with the matching Witch hazel & Aloe. So tomorrow morning it will be MITA deodorant and AS.
Attention Doc Lovan So after a full 12hr day wearing my new Piacenza, I noticed that it kinda pooped out at around the seven hour mark (I'm an ideal scenario body), whereas the Executive Man sample I was given is able to keep me presentable all day. My sample is labeled #4, and I'm wondering it it's a more potent formula that you were experimenting with. It's a much darker color than the collection of sticks that arrived yesterday. They all smell awesome, so they won't go unused. I'm just thinking that I might be a candidate for the future more potent versions you mentioned in an earlier post.
Yes, I've got Glacial MITA, but for whatever reason seem to use regular MITA more often. I have several other Glacials, so I guess they're covering the bases enough for the face freeze days. I enjoy a good face freeze, but not daily. And I've learned that I need to concentrate a little when using Glacial or I end up with a less smooth shave. Regular menthol/chill is mild enough for a great cool shave and post shave feel, but I can fully relax and zone out while shaving without getting too aggressive.
I'm definitely looking forward to trying out the anti-persperants. I'm hopeful that I won't get the same irritation.
Have been using my samples of Island Man EDT and Baker Street that Stirling were passing out at the Maggard Meet up. Have to say they are quite nice and have pretty good longevity. Got several compliments from various people, so thats always a good sign IMO.

MITA deodorant performed better today than Piacenza. Too many variables to draw any conclusions though.
