Scent Description
Stirling's Barbershop is a bit of a mystery. Although it calls itself a barbershop, it's main accords are vanilla and tobacco, almost as if it was slightly softer version of Stirling Gentleman, which itself is a softer version of Stirling Haverford. Where it truly becomes a barbershop is the powdery talc note and hints of citrus which float on top. Barbershop or not, many swear it reminds them of childhood visits to the barber. The bouquet is sweet and earthy, warm and inviting, masculine but with an air of sophistication. A great daytime scent which is suitable for home, an event, or the office
Scent Notes

About 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.

Base Description
The Stirling shave soap base hasn't changed its formula since it was first introduced and produces the quintessential example of a lather which ShaveSplash characterizes as Creamy. The formula follows the dictum of keeping it simple and is tallow-based with only 12-14 ingredients which are mainly all-natural. The result is a lather which is moist and smooth, with strong stability, good cushion, high density, and exceptional slickness, and due to the high-quality ingredients with beneficial skin properties has an excellent post-shave feel.
