BEARD OIL
Growing up my grandfather always went to a barbershop. Not a stylist, or beauty salon, or countrywide chain, but a simple barbershop. I remember the atmosphere was different, and I also remember the smell was different. It was a smell that you didn’t realize how much you missed until you found it again. There was something sophisticated about it, something calming about it, and something oh so memorable about it. I’ve always loved the smell and aesthetic of a classic barbershop, and BARBER CHOP tries to bring that home.
With heart notes of amber and rum and a light top note of musk and Bay, this will take you back to a simpler time. A time before the hustle and bustle, before cell phones and the internet. A time when getting a fresh shave and haircut was so much more than a task to squeeze into your day. It was a treat, a pleasure, and an opportunity to relax and catch up with friends. Step back in time and treat yourself with the simple purity of BARBER CHOP.
I recently found that one of my favorite old stories is, in fact, based on old Irish folklore. The story of the Headless Horseman is actually based on an old Irish tale about the Dullahan (or Dullaghan). And the idea fits this scent perfectly. As you meander your way through the woodsy scent of Violet Leaves and Redwood there's something… else coming from off in the distance. The simple smell of empty woods is slowly but inevitably taken over by the undeniable presence of Sandalwood, Florentine Iris, Herbaceous Clover, French Verbena, and Ambergris. Ichabod Crane was a teacher. Smart and sophisticated, but was forced into sudden action! And that’s exactly what this scent can do. It’s smart and sophisticated, but it’ll also stalk you through whatever occasion presents itself! Whether you’re running for your life, leading a symposium, or just getting through the day, DULLAHAN will follow you everywhere you go
The Grind doesn’t just describe the relentless effort you put into pushing through each day, or the grueling nature of life itself, but the sultry scent of Columbian Arabica beans that form the base of this unforgettable fragrance. Just like that mandatory cup first thing in the morning, what hits you immediately is the soul-warming scent of fresh coffee. But then you start to get hints of rum, brandy, brown sugar, and cocoa. But that’s not where it ends! After the initial hit of coffee, you begin to get to the heart of this evolving scent. Seductive notes of Amber, Teakwood, Musk, Cedar, and Leather ground the ethereal presence of Lemon, Bergamot, Neroli, Iris, and Vetiver. This complicated scent evolves from something as familiar and delectable as a gourmet roast into something all its own. This isn't just a scent, it's an experience. It’s time to wake up and grind with a scent that works as hard as you do. Experience THE GRIND, and I know that just like hard work and dedication, it’ll show you a side of life you didn’t know existed
