Stirling Sharp Dressed Man
The lather from this tallow based soap was not as thick or glossy as yesterday's mutton base from Stirling. Still, the scent was elegant as I began my transformation into a modern day Cary Grant, a sharp dressed man for whom the original of this scent was developed.

Would you be so kinda as to describe this scent? Please ...

It’s based on the Tom Ford scent, for which it is a dead ringer of the dry down. I guess it’s a unisex fragrance, but I find it quite masculine.

Anyway, the soap...Chris’ wagyu tallow base already has a slight but very pleasant, very unique, rich flavor to it. The Minerale scent compliments the base very well. I’d describe the scent as - sea salt, Sandalwood/driftwood, hint of leather, touch of aquatic. It’s deep, woody, and complex without being heavy. The scent of some of Chris’ soaps will linger on the skin and this is one of those, thank goodness!

Without question, it’s probably my favorite of his scents to date. Paired with the actual frag, it is dy-no-MITE!
