Piacenza
Stirling
Stirling was started by Roderick and Amanda Lovan in 2012 after a trip to Scotland during which they fell in love with products with natural ingredients and decided to try their hand at making natural soaps. After much trial and error they developed their own formula of natural ingredients and today have grown well beyond soaps into a full-line of shaving and grooming products for men and women which include bath bars, body lotions, balms, accessories and even coffee. Today, Stirling is one of the most beloved and popular brands among wet shavers due to its reputation for high quality ingredients, reasonable prices, wide variety, and excellent customer service.
Scent Description
Piacenza is Stirling's rendition of Acqua di Parma, a classic Italian Chypre which is all about lemon, lemon, and more lemon. Piacenza is not far from the original, meaning its intensely citrusy, bordering on an almost medicinal or hygienic scent, which is subtly rounded out by a mixture of herbs and flowers, with added depth from some woods and patchouli. It's almost as clean and fresh a scent as you can get, making it a great daytime fragrance suited for the office. As to Chypres, more well-balanced alternatives exist such as B&M's Le Grande Chypre, Razorock's The Dead Sea, or Epsilon's Blue Mediterranean. Regardless, if Acqua di Parma is what you're looking for, Piacenza fits the bill.
