Shaving Soap Sample: Vespers

3.99 Sale Save

Every year, the Christmas Market of Goslar, Germany opens in late November to international acclaim. Arguably the most famous Christmas Market in the world, the idyllic setting and beautiful forest of lit fir trees have captured the imaginations of artists and dreamers alike for hundreds of years.

Barrister and Mann is proud to be among them.

Vespers is the product of a specific picture, the image of a quaint mountain town in late December, snow falling gently on the peaked roofs, lights twinkling in the square. As one of the historic meeting places of Lower Saxony, we felt it necessary to incorporate our legendary version of Mousse de Saxe ("Saxon Moss"), in all its velvety darkness, into any fragrance representative of the village. Onto this we layered cranberry, cardamom, balsam, and a fern accord for a spicy-jammy-forest character. Patchouli, rose, sandalwood, and bergamot round out the rough edges to produce a scent one might expect to waft from a merrymaking hall on a chill evening. Vespers is the ultimate comfort scent for the dark months and we're very excited to release it this winter.

Decent shave soap, okay scent

This soap, along with all others that I purchased were hyped up by many in the wet shaving community as the best. These weren't my favorite, with in smell or lather. The scent was somewhat off-putting.

Hi there Sarah! I recommend checking out the lather demo that I shot awhile back, which should be able to help: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B_dsK0HxBoLrqsUbx39nffyj9tCtRZmr/view
