Citrus, Woody, Fruity, Musky, Sweet, Floral, Amber, Earthy, Fresh
Primary Notes: Blackcurrant, Bergamot, Lemon, Praline, Musk, Violet, Black Amber, Cedarwood, Vetiver
Bright, smooth, and refined, Kilimanjaro opens with blackcurrant, bergamot, and lemon for a clean citrus-fruit lift that feels fresh and energetic. As it develops, praline brings soft warmth while musk and violet add a polished floral smoothness. The finish settles into black amber, cedarwood, and vetiver, leaving a refined woody trail with gentle depth and elegance.
Fresh, modern, and easy to wear, Kilimanjaro brings a polished brightness to the shave.

Shave Soap Directions & Tips
Shave Soap Directions & Tips
Our shave soap is formulated for two things that matter most during a great shave: cushion and glide.
Cushion helps protect your skin from nicks, cuts, and irritation, while glide allows the razor to move smoothly and effortlessly across the skin.
When used with a shave brush, expect a smooth, creamy lather that helps bring out the soap’s scent profile. Without a brush, the soap will create a thinner white coating rather than a traditional lather, while still providing the same cushion and glide.
Our shave soap tubs and shave sticks use the same formulation and perform well with most water types. If you have particularly hard water and are having trouble creating a lather, try using distilled water. If the soap still does not lather properly with distilled water, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help.
