Stirling Island Man - Very Faint?

[been around]

Thanks for the info. I don't think it's my sniffer - I'm getting everything from B&M Whatsit and that runs the gamut from citrus to sweet. Coconut Lime is fine, Weekend in Malibu check, Satsuma is just fine. In fact, Island Man is the only fragrance I'm not getting much of anything from. Even the splash is very muted with a small amount of citrus and a small residual coconut fragrance.

It's a mystery. If it's not very strong to begin with maybe that's where my sniffer drops off. I would be as surprised as anyone if it's the batch, but I suppose that's what the numbers are for. I put an email into Stirling just in case.

Island man is a waste of time IMHO. The splash is just a little stronger than the faint soap scent. The good thing, the scent in the soap is so weak it won't offer interfere with a quality non-Sterling aftershave.
