Haven’t used the shaving soap yet, I agree the bath bar smells awesome. It could be that the base of the shaving soap is shining through. If you use it along with the matching splash I’m sure you’ll be happy with the outcome.Morning, I may contact Stirling , here's why and please tell me if it sounds crazy.
Executive Man Shave soap smells nothing like the sample bar soap that they sent a couple of weeks ago. I'm new, so... is this this normal ? I bought the SS because the bar soap smells awesome, but they have 2 distinct smells, what gives gents?
Been using Stirling shave soaps as well as the bar soaps for 4-5yrs now and there are differences in some of the scents from one to the other as the ingredients aren't the same in each. It's the same for the shampoo bars also. I use Sandpiper in all 3 but the shampoo bar smells slightly different from the shave soap and the soap bar. To be honest, I have been using them for so long now I rarely notice it...Morning, I may contact Stirling , here's why and please tell me if it sounds crazy.

slightly off topic, and I'm not sure if you have any of the other brushes I'm trying to compare it to, but here it comes anyway. Is the big bruce more dense than the regular Plissoft? how is it compared to the PAA atomic rocket (same size knot)?Wasn't sure where to post last nights shave, but Stirling was involved so I landed here:
I enjoyed this shave so much that I had to share , both the performance and scent combination was over the top.
Preshave PAA Cube Menthol
Brush Big Bruce
Soap Stirling BR
Razor Gillette 1 guard cart
Post Cold rinse/ clean up
AS Clubman Bay Rum
Had lingering awesome scents all evening long, skin felt amazing. Good day.
I'm sorry, I'm so new to this that I can't give the answer that this good question deserves .slightly off topic, and I'm not sure if you have any of the other brushes I'm trying to compare it to, but here it comes anyway.

no worries, I have the regular Plissoft, I'm thinking of getting another, like the BigBruce or the PAA RocketI'm sorry, I'm so new to this that I can't give the answer that this good question deserves .

Great point. So Tallow plays a part in the scent?Absence of Tallow in the bath bar
Yeah. Some of the fats/fatty acids/oils/butters used to make soap are going to have a stronger smell than others. Beef and mutton tallow are probably the most strongly scented used compared to say pure stearic acid or palm oilGreat point. So Tallow plays a part in the scent?
