Favorite Stirling Shaving Soap Scents: Top Ten - 10 Best

[@StirlingSoap]

Texas on Fire at number 5? My kinda guy. Thanks for putting up the list. 🙂

[@santaclaus179]

I have around 27 stirlings in my humble 270 different soap den , my favorite are : barbershop , piacenza , arkadia , vanilla sandalwood , satsuma, d503 , citron , sheep ( no scent but great lather ), haverford , glastonburry and sharp dressed man.

[@IAMCDB]

Wow! We did not have a single common choice in our top 10. I guess this is why they call it a YMMV hobby:) I do like MITA though.

[@TakeCareMan]

And I’ve tried them all (with exception of releases from couple of weeks ago) thanks to the affordability of their samples.

[@boostedbliss07MK5]

Nice list! I want to try Christmas Eve this yr. I love the hot apple cider & coniferous. Pharaohs dreamsicle & boat drinks. I like all their pine/woodsy scents except ozark irritated my face but it’s ok It’s the only one that does of all the ones I’ve tried by them.

[@TakeCareMan]

Coniferous is so good. I particularly like to order the splash with glacial level menthol.

[@mikeh9701]

Hi Todd- Great list of Stirling soaps; thank you! I don’t have ten, but I do have Satsuma and Almond Creme. Best regards!

[@leehaseley2164]

Great top ten, Todd. My favorite Stirling soaps are Iced Pineapple and Almond Creme

[@santaclaus179]

yes barbershop very nice with talc scent also as CAD from phoenix

[@falleng2392]

Barbershop is my second favorite! My number one has to be Haverford. I’m currently obsessed with Haverford.

[@TakeCareMan]

I need to give Haverford another try.

[@santaclaus179]

yes barbershop great such as CAD from phoenix , haverford very nice scent but my favorite is glantonburry since the scent of pachuli is so nice

[@DoubleAshaves]

Hey man, great list!! I have coniferous and barbershop and I just love them! Another one I love that’s scented with just essential oils is bay rum! If you haven’t picked it up yet you should check it out.

[@TakeCareMan]

I am glad you enjoyed the list. I may pick up the Bay Rum one of these days. Thanks for watching!

[@jimmurphy9904]

Just did a search for obsidian on their sight. I guess it’s gone. Bummer. Enjoyed your list, thanks for sharing. If you happen to come across a link I could grab obsidian please share if you don’t mind.

[@TakeCareMan]

I am pretty sure that Glacial Obsidian is a "summer seasonal" that comes out in May each year and is out for around 3 months. You can always contact Rod & Mandy and ask them. HOWEVER, Black Ice is the same scent with just less menthol. So Black Ice is regular menthol and Glacial Obsidian is their glacial level menthol. www.stirlingsoap.com/collections/all/products/black-ice-shave-soap

My top 3: haverford / vanille sandalwood / Texas on Fire🔥🔥

[@TakeCareMan]

Texas on Fire is so underrated.

[@theopinionatedbrit]

Some great selections in there Todd. Have to admit Christmas Eve would be in my top 10, but not sure I have 10 Stirling soaps (not far off). I love their cologne type scents and have quite a few. Evergreen forest is another of my favourites. Keep up the good work buddy

[@John-lc2lz]

Oro Valley, Haverford, Ozarks.

[@TakeCareMan]

I should try a sample of Oro Valley. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@kwl189]

@@TakeCareManOro Valley is insanely good. It makes me want to shave every single day.

[@pjwroblewski]

All excellent choices

[@pjwroblewski]

All excellent choices.

[@os8544-k6z]

I've got full pucks of "Bergamot Lavender", "Texas on Fire" and "Coniferous" and love all of them. However, I have to prepare myself mentally to use "Texas on Fire". The scent is intense. "Piacenza" is my pick for the summer time.

[@silkycreamy9047]

Great video! I loved how you described the scents in detail and went back to your original review video. Top notch!

[@mikeperritte]

Nice list, makes me want to try some of these scents.

[@dk.damnfineshave]

Nice list Todd! I think I should get a sample of Texas on fire in the future.

[@jbag102]

can't beat Stirling price vs performance. i just seen David's video on the tubs...funny

[@AlexShavesReviews]

Ok...now I have to go buy some Stirling soaps 😂 Great list! Stay safe & cheers!

[@alspencer2794]

1. Bay Rum 2. Barbershop 3. Stirling Spice 4. Duke 5. Piacenza 6. Ramblin’ Ma 7. British Leather 8. Campania

[@TakeCareMan]

I have not tried Duke or Campania.

[@alspencer2794]

So many good scents, I’ve had to go to samples because of room restrictions 😜

[@clearlycaribbeanreb2895]

I love Sharp Dressed Man

[@magnoliamike]

Stirling’s barbershop is my favorite barbershop

[@TakeCareMan]

I really love it as well. To me it is very different than other scents label as a barbershop scent.

[@travis3624]

I love the everglades soap it has such a nice scent you absolutely love it's not Stirling but if you Google I'm sure it would come up. For Stirling Stirling Noir Stirling Black Stirling (Chrome Azzaro Dupe) Mountain Man Sandpiper Those are all I have that I like

[@zapblast]

I really like this list -- mainly because you mention scents that few others mention. Regarding Stirling's British Leather, that's the one scent I found extremely disappointing. I just don't remember the smokiness that dominates Stirling's. Take the smokiness out and it would be perfect.

[@TakeCareMan]

I am not a big citrus fan or gourmand fan, so I tend to like the earthy, woody, tobacco, leather, etc notes.

[@buellryda]

I have Texas on fire and sandlewood. Haven’t tried sandlewood yet. Texas on fire. In the tub the essence is not to my liking, however once I put some water and brush action to it I loved the scent. I will be looking at their other products in this scent. It reminds me of the stoic elderly Man you pass at the mall and think where did he get that cologne and figure no use in asking he’s had it for 40 years and they don’t make it anymore. Look no farther it’s Texas on fire.

[@ghelley]

What No Piacenza 😳😳 Great List Todd 👍👍

[@TakeCareMan]

Not my thing.

[@lawrence1md]

Excellent choices!

[@TheShavingDisciple]

Wow, we are not on the same page when it comes to scents. Only one, maybe 2 that I agree with (Barbershop, which I used today, and English Leather, which I like but my wife doesn't). 4 I haven't tried yet, and 4 that I do not enjoy. Good thing Rod has something for everyone.

[@TakeCareMan]

So which 4 do you not like?

[@TheShavingDisciple]

@@TakeCareMan Ozark, MITA, Bergamot Lavender, and Texas on Fire.

[@ShaveCave]

Stirling One is good!!

[@toddd7444]

@toddd7444 0 seconds ago In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Bar Soap, Tallow or Glycerin based Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. Wheelchair Larry Happy New Year. Your Mileage may vary?

[@mikekisonu6825]

I was with ya until “Barbershop.” Smells more like a BAKERY to me! 😋🍰🧁 And, yes, “David” does have some odd aversion to green. Go figure. 🤔 BTW, didn’t recognize you without the goatee. Makes my wanna shave my WHITE chin whiskers too! 😉

[@TakeCareMan]

I definitely has a gourmand (chocolate / vanilla) vibe to it. Yep. I had to shave the goatee to get my CPAP mask to seal correctly.
