    I've had the aftershave in a sample at least once but I think twice. It never bothered me then. I added the glacial menthol to the splash. Mmm mmm good!

    My order shipped as well! Mainly gifts for my wife, daughter, and a few friends. Super excited to share some Stirling joy!

    That's too bad, Andrew. On a happier note, I got a package in the mail today. Thanks, buddy!

    It's been quite the month. My first AC razor, injector, and now a Gem.

    I have to juggle between the winner of the 2019 Stoylin Tony Awards and my gift certificate choice(s). Won't buy them at the same time, I think.

    Sigh, what I though was going to be a speedy delivery is turning out to be on the slow truck. Since Monday my package has only made it to Memphis TN. Its my own fault for ordering so much stuff that it couldn't be sent via USPS. Luckily I have 10 or so other tubs of Stirling to keep me content.

    Would you say that Naked&Smooth is a glorified Williams? It's nice to see artisan soapmakers clone Drakkar Noir(I know of 3 now).

    Absolutely not, It is a completely unscented soap. I actually got this one for my wife (she has eczema and anything with fragrance will usually cause her to break out) in an attempt to get her into wet shaving, alas it didn't work and the tub sits unused on the back of my shelf. Aside from having no scent where Williams has a mild fragrance (I don't know what it is I've never used Williams) Naked and Smooth actually lathers well (just like every other Stirling Soap), unlike Williams :p.

    Isn't "Bills" unscented, too? (I hope Fuzzy doesn't see that!!). Oh, you say mild...I never really picked it up(the scent).

    No, I'm pretty sure it has a mild citronella scent. Maybe someone that has used Williams can chime in.

    No, just lightly scented. Citronella-ish, like Arko. And it lathers great too. Unless you insult it. Then it holds out, just to spite you. :D
