This is the only 1 among various Stirling Soaps I owned, the scent was a letdown...hahaha. The lather however is perfectly creamy and slick with an icy sensation!
One of my top & efficient razors paired with this blade was perfection! Really good blade. 3 smooth comfortable and efficient passes for a bbs finish without any issues. The aftershaves were great!

I had a chance to try my latest GEM razor acquisition, a Bullet Tip that I won in a raffle. I had been looking for one so it was a stroke of luck that I won it. The universe was trying to tell me that it was time to try this razor because I had a fantastic shave. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since I do so well with GEM razors of all types.

Stirling had announced a few weeks ago that Lime was back in stock so I used it as an excuse...er, I mean I very responsibly ordered only the things I needed. 😇 I think the best way to describe the scent is as if I cut a fresh lime in half and rubbed it on my face. Bright, strong, clean lime and nothing but.

I ended up with an exceptionally smooth BBS result. 9.8/10. Happy shaves all!

Razor RazoRock G37 Slant
Blade SilverStar Duridium 4th
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Bergamot Lavender + Stirling Executive Man Splash
A wonderful soap! Lovely scent with rich creamy and slick lather!
The shave with this excellent razor paired with the vintage blade was surprisingly very good. Easy, smooth, comfortable but less efficient in 3passes for a dfs++ result. The aftershaves were just awesome.
