A couple of things came in earlier than USPS predicted, which excited about.

Like everybody says, the picture, albeit awful anyway, doesn't do the Paladin justice. The jury is still out on King of Oud. American Blend isn't a new scent to me, but I enjoy having it back. And I'll be taking a couple of straights to work tomorrow for new scales.

One more MC before going on a nice 3 day timeout with the misses to Lake George, NY this weekend for some fun, sun and eats. Rod @Stirling is freakin awesome! Placed my order last week and no updates on shipping for 5 days. I sent him an email on Tuesday afternoon asking if the items will ship anytime soon as I’m heading out for vacay soon. If not, I’ll make arrangements so that someone can receive and hold the package until I get back. He writes back sorry for the delay. Im getting your order ready as I write this. I said cool and I said I’ll make arrangements on my end so that the package is not out in the sun/rain for 4-5 days or until I return. Rob then sends me another email 30 mins later stating items are leaving Fed-Ex 2 Day. On his dime! My jaw dropped and I was speechless. Shipped Tuesday, here Thursday a day before I leave. Rod & Mandy over at Stirling just get it and just go over and beyond the call of duty. I just emailed him thanking him and that he’s earned my loyalty, regardless. Little things like that is why I have no issue putting my greenbacks in his pocket. They just get it and will do whatever it takes to get it right. I’ll support him in every way possible I can without hesitation. They earned it, in spades....

The fragrances are from ForeverLux. Been searching for the Versace Eau Fraiche a/s Locion forever as I have the Eau de toilette and decided to jump on the Valentino Uomo Acqua edt as it is a fresh fragrance that is not citrus dominant nor aquatic at all but, it has a wonderful greenness with a slight leather, light powdery iris with some gorgeous floral notes. The Misses loves this stuff and since its been discontinued, I threw it in the cart. Still relatively cheap at under $40 and prices will soon go up for a really unique yet fresh and manly fragrance. Nothing else like it out there.

Happy shaves, Gents....
