What soap/cream did you use today?

Tallow & Steel Madagascar

This my friends, is Mitchells Woolfat. I keep it in a workaday plastic tub because I don't have that funky ceramic dish. The fat is a lot of people's favorite and although not my fav, I really do like it. Most describe the scent as "soapy" but to my schnozzola there is a lot more going on here. There is a definite woody note going on but just enough to "man up" the floral accord. I think I'm getting lavender and carnation? At any rate it smells like a gentleman to me. Scent strength is in line with British subtleties. I'd say about 4.5/10. Also like other British hard soaps the mild scent has staying power as I can still smell it hours after a shave. Some report lathering difficulties but I've never experienced that. This is a triple milled hard soap so load it long and it'll treat you right. Shoot, a soap that's been around this long and is still loved by the masses can't be doing too much wrong.

Stirling Soap in Stirling Spice scent. This soap loves water and for me performs better when loading with a wet brush. Copious lather. Low, creamy structure and easy to get that shine that signifies slickness. Scent is a dupe of Old Spice, or should I say a nod to Old Spice. It doesn't smell much like Old Spice to me but it certainly is in that family. The scent is wonderful and plentiful (8/10) by the way. The other day I read someone opine that Stirling was a "good middle of the road" soap. To me, Stirling is a top performer and if I was forced to only use Stirling I would not feel hindered in the least. sure, donkey milk, duck fat, and a litany of other flavor-of-the-day ingredients work well in a soap but it has been a really long time since I've seen a new soap that blew the competition out of the water. What I generally see is the price ever-increasing on new offerings and no discernible improvements compared to old standbys. Stirling is a very solid soap base and with as many flavors as they offer anyone can find a few they enjoy.
