    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


Island Man is a dupe of Creed Virgin Island Water. I need to try this Creed fragrance because I absolutely love Rod's dupe of it. A&E St. Barts is a dupe of the same fragrance, and while I like St. Barts, it does not have that blue-cool factor that you get with Island Man.

And, I'm supporting Stirling in today's matchup. To provide so many products with such a high level of quality, at excellent value, and to do this for 12 years while continually growing the business, is exceptional. Kudos from me!
