Cooled Summer Edition seriously amps up the Mango and highlights the citrus top in a very unique way. Think mango and citrus carried on a breeze with a touch of sun-kissed skin and the familiar base of warm tobacco and woods. Your tropical summer beach vacation has arrived.

The cooling in this soap is noticeable, but not overbearing in any way. It does last 20-30 minutes following the shave.

C4 is really a complete overhaul of the Cardinal base. It combines the result of countless hours of R&D and input from testers. This base loads extremely fast, lathers easily and offers improvements in performance across the board. Perhaps the most unique quality of this base is that you can build a great lather very quickly or continue to hydrate to build a truly exceptional lather. The lather quality seems to improve with each pass!

Created for adventurers, novelists, rum and cigar aficionado’s of all kinds. We took the inspiration for this fragrance from the Key West and Cuba days. Rumor has it that when attempting to catch a monster fish - sometimes it takes 85 days!

Ernest opens up with a bright and uplifting tropical citrus accord. The fragrance transitions with the addition of warm florals and tobacco. As the aroma settles into the skin it finishes with the warm notes of tobacco, vetiver and woods. The perfect fragrance for your next summer adventure.

Mr. Washington, POTUS #1, definitively a man's man represents our darker masculine fragrance. The fragrance opens with citrus and woods, mingled with florals and the complexity of labdanum. Traditional warm and earthy elements of Patchouli, Amber, Oak Moss, and Musk create the base of this deep fragrance. Taking cue from his tobacco cultivation at Mt. Vernon, we added a healthy portion of tobacco.


The Cooled Summer Edition is our attempt to make our freshest scent even fresher!
 For this LE version, we boosted the peppermint EO and highlighted both the citrus and lavender with a unique aldehyde blend. This is truly an invigorating experience!

Jackie was a pioneer in numerous ways and eminently deserving of the Gentleman’s Nod as evidenced by the retiring of #42 across every MLB team! Jackie is the quintessential masculine fragrance. A fresh new aromatic fougère. The top carries a beautiful fresh quality that lasts all the way into the transition to the dry down. The mid brings the familiar floral formula with some unique additions. The dry down is where the magic happens in Jackie. It is an intoxicating masculine medley of tobacco, amber, woods and musk. Great all year round!

Q - “if you had to sum up the difference between your original soap and this in one word, what would it be?”

A - MORE

Is the original formula slick? This is in another category of slick!

Did the original formula leave your skin feeling great? This might just cause a smile to spread across your face that lasts throughout the day!

Did the original formula have a dense cushioning lather? You can create mounds of lather to spare with this formula!

Tallow, Castor, and an assortment of milks and proteins combine to make an excellent, dense and creamy lather. The anti-inflammatory and skin nourishing mix in this soap ensures that your skin is on its way to feeling healthy and refreshed before you even reach for our post-shave serum. Give our new formula a try - trust us, your face will thank you!

Vincent - Van Gogh was perhaps the most famous artist the world has known. His life and works exemplified the contrast of beauty and tragedy. To illustrate this further, his most beloved work The Starry Night, from which we derived the number 11 (# of stars), was created just a month after having himself committed. The inspiration for this complex fragrance was taken from the prolific period of Arles and Saint-Rémy.

The fragrance opens with the nutty sweet and fresh combination of almond and citrus. The heart of this fragrance transitions into a spicy green floral dominated by lavender, cypress and rosewood. A deep, rich finish that is earthy, powdery and green is created by the combination of Oakmoss, Orcanox, and Vetiver. Though Van Gogh only sold (1) painting during his lifetime, his works have left an indelible impression on the world of art. We hope this fragrance leaves a lasting impression as well.

Want to try out our excellent shaving soaps, but not sure which scent you would like best. Buy a flight and try them all before you decide on a full sized product.

Our Johnny fragrance was created for those who don’t quite fit the mold of other’s expectations and are comfortable with it. A scent for those who wear black not to look cool, but as a silent rebellion against the status quo; those whose confidence and humility are inseparable. This aroma resonates with those whose distinction is manifest in the quality of their work and character, yet don’t feel the need to shout it from every mountain. They are plain to see and can be appreciated by all. It is for those whose message is forged by conviction un-altered by popularity.

It opens with the crispness of green apple, citrus, and Timur Pepper. The intoxicating sweetness of jasmine, rosewood and tonka draw you in deeper. Warm earth tones of amber, patchouli, vetiver and musk round out this unforgettable fragrance.
