Great shave. I have some new samples from Berceuce (Will’s latest fragrance project) but my nose is still stuffy, so it’d be a waste to try them at this point. Soon, I hope!

A comfortable close shave with the GC. I’m pretty sure this razor has replaced my Rockwell 6C.
Lovely lather from Stirling as always, and I really enjoyed the smokiness of this fragrance. It’s not overpowering, and certainly not ‘like an ashtray’ as I’ve seen in other reviews. Thanks for the generous smush @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social! 🙌
Have a great Saturday y’all. It’s looking like it’ll be a beautiful one here.
You’re welcome! Nice to hear that you enjoy the sample. It’s definitely not an ashtray to me either, but I can see why it’s a quite divisive scent - not many people can handle that much smoke.

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
I noticed that everyone who posted before me today used a Stirling soap. Clearly I need to follow suit!
I took my time and enjoyed this one. The razor has an Ozuku Jnat edge on it that feels so good you just have to take extra time.
Ha! I didn’t even notice, we had an unintentional Stirling chain today. 👏
Ha! Satirlingday!
We’ll workshop that name
Saterlingday?

- Lather: Stirling Soap Co. – Satsuma
- Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. – Satsuma

Really enjoying the bright happy orange juice of Satsuma. I know there are also spicy notes, but it’s mostly orange to me, and that’s just what I was looking for.
