Stirling soaps

Stirling Kaboom for me today. Almost done with this one.

I am hoping to make it through 4 more shaves from this tub to finish a FFFMM grume I'm in otherwise it will be a failed attempt!! I know I can get 2 good shaves but not sure about 4 though. Good thing I only shave every other day... Positive side, it will be the 2nd tub of Stirling I finish so far this year!!


eta... On a happy note I have finished my 2nd tub this year so far but its also a sad note because now I can't finish the FFFMM '24 grume!! Maybe next year...

Fantastic artisan - I have more products from them than any other artisan. My favorites are Haverford and Boat Drinks. Just picked up Iced Pineapple and Iced Coffee at the Maggard Meet Up this weekend!

I bought 10 samples last year and they threw in a bay rum sample which I have been enjoying quite a bit this week.

If you’re a Tom Ford Grey Vetiver fan, Faskally by Stirling is a real nice fix. Not identical of course but, close enough. The splash is excellent that gives a slight brighter vibe of citrus to give the edt some lift. Really good stuff….

I will be trying one soon. I had it PIF'd to me with a matching aftershave. As far as fragrance goes, it doesn't smell good at all. Can't figure out why someone would make something that smells like this.

Solidus. It is supposed to have some citrus/bergamot in it but all I smell is hippies and patchouli. I don't see how anybody could find this to be pleasant,. Maybe it will smell better on my skin ?
