Stirling Texas On Fire AS. This one gets a thumbs down from me. It smells like barbecued ribs and pencil shavings. Not something I want to walk around smelling like all day. I like smokey scents but this one has nothing else to balance out the smokiness, despite the description on the website saying that it has vanilla. I can't detect the slightest hint of sweetness.

Sorry to hear that Jeff. Maybe try it one more time...I eventually grew to love the scent

I had the bath soap, and had a very similar experience. It’s uncanny what scents can be replicated in hygiene products, and this is one such, so props to Rod in that sense. To me, using the soap reminded me of sitting around a campfire. Not a bad thing, but I just couldn’t think of very many prolonged situations where I would want to sense such a scent (or radiate such a vibe to my surroundings). Glad it has its fans, though!

Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”
