Customers praised this cologne for its "crisp, clean" scent, often compared to high-end fragrances at a fraction of the price. Many noted it "smells great" with sweet undertones and freshness. However, longevity is debated—some report it "lasts all day," while others say it fades within hours. A few mentioned the EDT differs slightly from matching products.

Smells great, doesn't last as long as I would like, but still great product.
There was literally no scent. No matter how much I sprayed. Tossed it. Old supplier quality seemed much better.
Not very much lingering power
I bought this about a month ago and have already ordered the large bottle. The scent is one of my favorites.
Great scent , lasts pretty much all day & my wife loves it, what more could you ask for?
Scent needs to be more stronger. Still good.
Beautiful fragrance. As usual Stirling lives up to their name.
Best smell ever, please try to get more!
It has a scent of freshness, drive and air, with sweet aftertaste notes. As everyone already writes - the best description is the scent of some kind of service station. managed to put together a complete combo of this scent from shaving soap, balm, lotion and eau de toilette. I definitely recommend it, even blindly. One more thing the scent not strong nor weak, something in middle, it won't bother everyone around you, but will be prominent.

I find this in my regular rotation along with haverford and a couple others. I don't know what the original Tom Ford scent smells like but I just love this one. A must have in the cabinet if you like those sweet undertones.
I enjoy the Arance Mandarini aftershave and use it on a regular basis. But for special occasions when I want an amazing scent to last longer I will use my Arance Mandarini cologne. It is just right, not overpowering at all. It has a perfect subtle orange citrus scent that is my favorite SSC scent.
Item came quickly
Great service
I love the Executive Man Cologne! Spray it on and lasts a l o n g time. Compliments the Shave Soap, Balm , and After Shave. My favorite scent yet from Stirling!!!,
I own Aventus and this comes damn close to the original. Much closer than it should be based on its price but it doesn’t seem to last. Compared to Haverford which I can get a full days wear out of this seems to disappear after a few hours. Shame because it smells so good.
The scents that I got are amazing and well worth the wait! I had a really bad issue with USPS not delivering it to my new address, but the owner had reached out to help me with getting it reshipped to my old address with my family and I finally got to pick up my package. They were all so helpful, they’ve become the only place I get my soaps and cologne from, can’t recommend them enough!!
Everyone loves the Creed Aventus scent and that’s exactly what this is. It’s crisp, clean and intoxicating. But I see where some people are complaining about longevity and that’s probably because of the way they are applying it. Always make certain to spray 10 to 12 inches away. What you want is a mist. Spray it any closer and you’ll get more of an alcohol scent. And never…NEVER… rub the juice into your skin. That not only shortens the longevity but can change the dry down scents. Remember… these are complex mixtures that makes up the scent. If you’ll try these two steps and I believe you’ll get more longevity. I’m getting six hours on this scent and that’s incredible at this price point. And this scent is fantastic at any price..
Very disappointed in this performance of this one.
Scent is to die for. Classy, clean, just amazing.
Sadly it only lasted for about 15 minutes before becoming undetectable.
Honestly the soap sample is what sold me on buying the entire set and wow ..this is gonna be a lock on favorite for me from now on
I haven't worn any fancy pants EDT in ages. I work in human services and these days there's "no fragrance" policies at offices - but as my job takes me into the field most of the day, and into some frankly, ghastly smelling houses...I wanted something that would remind me that I'm a man of culture and learning.
I applied to much the first go and my girlfriend and her daughter yelled "Arrgh! Did you put on cologne!?"
No worries...after what I think is called the "warm down" the scent mellowed from candied pineapple to a something that reminds me of cleanliness, stability and money. Now after wearing it for a week I get "Oooh, you smell good!"
Some complain about silage, projection, and want an ETD to go beast mode. This might be too subtle for them, but I can smell it all day and night and so can my girlfriend when we get close. I really don't care if the neighbors don't get to enjoy it too.
I have no idea what Creed Aventus smells like as I avoid the cosmetics counters at the high end department stores my girlfriend sometimes drags me through. If it's close to this, I can see why some people spend big bucks on it.
Would buy again and will try some of the other EDTs. I've been supporting Stirling since I found it through the ancient wet shaving community and have experienced the evolution of their line. This is exceptional which is why I basically wrote a blog post instead of a review.
Love the smell but its gone in 15 mins even with multiple sprays. I cant smell it, others cant smell it. Nice smell but useless as a cologne
I really enjoy this EDT. Many I have seen here and on forums comment it is for more formal wear, I disagree. I enjoy this as a daily wear to the office (where admittedly I wear dress shirts and ties and work in a Director role). I find it to be a sweet forward scent, but not in a feminine way, balanced by deeper undertones. Its subtle and not too pronounced, which is what I want. I don't want my EDT to pre-announce my arrival. My wife likes it which is a plus. I thought about knocking off one star because I don't find the scent lasts too well for more than a couple hours, but that is expected of an EDT. I am 8 hours into wearing if and if I smell directly where I applied, I get a bit, but I don't think someone near me would pick up at this point.
I am on my 2nd bottle of Executive Man EDT. I also purchased the aftershave along with it this time. So that it would be stronger. Not that it's week because it's not. It's just I like to have a strong scent on. Also let me just say how awesome this company is. I absolutely love it. First of there so fast with their shipping. They don't mess around. As soon as you order it they ship it out that day or the next day. It is very rare that it would take them 3 days to ship a product. As I'm reading this right now my EM was delivered to my house 25 minutes ago. I ordered it only 2 days ago. Stirling you are the best. And you have one of the best EDT's out there. That's not just coming from me. I know many who would agree with me.
I purchased this EDT to compare it to Creed's Avantus. Now having done that. I prefer Executive Man to Avantus. I have to say that my wife is absolutely in love with this scent. I sprayed it on myself. She them told me I need to stock up on it. I need to get everything they make in Executive Man. She says I can never run out of this EDT. Guys if you want your wife or girlfriend to be all over you get this sent. I'm going to get more of this EDT. I'm also going to purchase everything they make in this sent. I highly, highly recommend it.
This smells so good, I can't get enough. It is different from the splash and soap, but that's a good thing. After a shave with the soap and splashed with the aftershave, I layer this scent on top of it all. It's similar to the splash but more spicy. I love it.
I absolutely love stirling products and of my favorite is the executive man line of products, I actually prefer the smell of the shave soap, lotion, and aftershave to real creed aventus. So I was very excited for this cologne until I actually used it. To me and everybody else I've had smell this cologne we all agree it smells nothing like the other executive man products. I was extremely disappointed because if it did smell like the rest of the executive man products it would easily be my favorite cologne even over actual creed aventus. I can't say if I just got a bad batch or not as I've only ordered the one bottle of this cologne because I do not wear it.
I have been buying shaving items from this company for a while. I started getting into different colognes and noticed that Sterling was now selling colognes. Picked up five of the five meal samples. they were all nice but this one has gotten me so many compliments it's almost embarrassing. Great product great people great price
I had a bartender recognize this scent as Creed Adventus. This, Haverford, and Mountain Man are my favorite scents by Stirling so far.
Extremely refined and crisp smelling and perfect for dominating the work room. This is my go to smell if I find myself putting on a suit as it boosts my confidence and makes me feel...well executive. This is an amazing scent for the professional environment. I personally feel it's a little too sophisticated for casual wear but that may be because I'm obsessed with sharp dressed man as my casual smell.
