Nice Spin On Barbershop Scents
Stirling is a wet shaving community staple. They have many original and clone takes on fragrance. The wet shaving community is tough, they put old school scents on a pedestal, and demand in these smaller artisan groups asks for specific things. So if your focus is an aftershave product, but it clashes with that designer scent, then you kind of have to replicate that designer scent to sell more product. I tend to layer my aftershaves with similar scent profiles, but even then it can be tough, and if you are wearing a high end fragrance,you don’t want to ruin the artistry some other scent (thus matching deodorant sets even exist).
OK, back to Barbershop, this item shines and reflects the talented people working at Stirling Soap. It’s why they have a mix, probably at least 1/3 original creations. This is a very nice, a bit linear, powdery vanilla scent profile. Not a gourmand, just a clean tonka oriented sweet. I agree that this is like a portion of “Barbshop” style scents has been selected. Clubman Pinaud for example has a sweet vanilla powdery base, this could easily be that part plucked out for the younger wet shaving community. This kind of reminds me of how Authenticity Perfumes has created a unique spin on Barbershop also, they are not identical, but both offer a new spin on Barbershop that is welcome. This is not traditional by any means, but still offers up a fresh clean powdery vibe that shines. I highly recommend trying many of the offerings this company has available, and if like me you enjoy a good aftershave splash, but it might conflict with you favourite scent, well they might have that covered for you too. Cheers all.
