Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain. The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" on to. The glycerin acts as a humectant pulling more water into the hair, prepping and softening it, thus making it a bigger target to mow down!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg height=\"320\" width=\"419\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" alt=\"Cube Preshave Soap\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/5884\/files\/CUBE_Preshave_Soap_Activated_Charcoal_Phoenix_Shaving_large.jpg?v=1506271554\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCUBE?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe release of \u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e has been a long time coming.

I can tell you why\u003cem\u003e I\u003c\/em\u003e think it's better, but in the end, do what works for you! First off, unlike using oil, a Preshave Soap will not gunk up your gear and rinses away easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was seriously turned off by all the clean up involved when using oils. Plus I was always concerned about it getting into my favorite brushes undetected and going rancid. Also, applying oil with your hands then holding onto a blade is not the safest move in my book. [\u003cem\u003eThat said\u003c\/em\u003e, if you currently use an oil, apply it with your non-shaver hand!] In short, Preshave Oils inspired me to find a better way!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy a Preshave Soap is More Effective.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA preshave soap really offers more bang for your buck; for one, it's more affordable and longer lasting. Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain. The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" onto. The glycerin acts as a humectant pulling more water into the hair, prepping and softening it, thus making it a bigger target to mow down!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnother benefit\u003c\/strong\u003e is the Menthol option!

Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain.

The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" onto.

Memories flood back. The ones that have been hiding in the remote corners of your mind, waiting for a scent like this to draw them out. The regenerating heart of the fragrance beats with Sandalwood, Cedar, and a touch of Carnation—that unexpected floral note you never saw coming, but somehow makes perfect sense. It’s like walking into a room and feeling a presence that shouldn’t be there. But still, you’re drawn in. And then there’s the base: Incense, Tobacco, Vanilla, with a lingering edge of Vetiver and Patchouli. These are the smells of forgotten places. Old leather-bound books gathering dust, a smoldering fire that’s almost gone out but still carries the faintest trace of warmth.

Greenwitch Envy is now part of two stories. A feeling of old magic and a scent born of the earth, of roots that go deep into the ground, of autumn nights where the air turns cold and sharp, and you can almost hear the ancient and recent past whispering from beyond.

Thomas (British), for an article in the journal Nature. In the article, the authors describe how the smell derives from an oil exuded by certain plants during dry periods, whereupon it is absorbed by clay-based soils and rocks. During rain, the oil is released into the air along with another compound, geosmin, a metabolic by-product of certain Actinobacteria, which is emitted by wet soil, producing the distinctive scent; ozone may also be present if there is lightning.

And, amusingly enough, many of our male testers who tried the sample without reading the label agreed completely.

Its balance of fruit, floral, and woods makes it transcend gender altogether. There’s even an incense-like depth that emerges in the dry down, reminding some of resin burning in a quiet room. (or a head shop!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p2\"\u003eThis is a scent that lingers in the mind long after it leaves the skin, one that evokes warmth, calm, and a certain lunar serenity.

She’s “Otra,” the long-lost twin sister of Al Fin! You remember Al Fin, all calm waters and radiant transcendence (really a lovely girl). Well, Otra (“Other,” for those who skipped Spanish class) was the sister who got the short end of the trident. Imprisoned in a windy, mystic river, she spent ages watching her sister shimmer in the spotlight. The jealousy bubbled. (long story)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eThe current twisted.

I’m the guy who discontinued Otra back in the day, yeah, that was me. And, well, it looks like she took it personally. But hey, it’s spooky season, right? Perfect time for a resurrection with a little attitude!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eLa Sirena is that comeback story. She’s back from the depths, calling down the Sun, Moon, and Stars themselves, a scent both nostalgic and transcendent. Imagine the original 1994 fragrance reborn through a Phoenix Shaving prism: incense smoke curling through moonlight, scifi, some Mexican Lottery Cards, a shimmering balance of floral warmth and celestial calm. Who better to pair with ESP for the latest Creature Double Feature Release, no?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eSo yes, my friends, Otra swims again, but this time as the shapeshifter.

The name I had in mind was La Sirena! The artwork for the blade was what became the original Al Fin art! It was blue and holographic on an amber bottle...some of you may still have this in your collection! So the connection to Al Fin was always there, as was the color blue! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003e“Our goal was to bring back the real Sun, Moon \u0026amp; Stars, the one I remember, not the reformulated shadow that followed.

The dry-down rests on soft tobacco leaf, smooth olive wood, and resinous myrrh, creating an elegant, meditative fragrance that just feels special. I personally get an infectious, effervescent note in this blend that keeps me returning to the bottle throughout the work day...or taking a whiff of my wrist when no one is looking (not that I care).

Fewer influencer unboxings, and far more mystery. A time when a men’s fragrance could whisper instead of shout, and still leave a room feeling charged. (Maybe I should have waited to drop this as \"007\"?)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat’s where Gucci Pour Homme II entered the scene (referred to as \"2007\" by those who know). A specter haunting a modern-day library or tea house; refined, reflective, and yes, long gone. But as you know, the Doppelgänger Continuum Series isn’t about letting great scents fade away. It’s about calling them back to the land of the living!

Pour Homme II was never about loud dominance, it was about quiet presence. A fresh cup of black tea steeped in bergamot light, infused with cinnamon and pimento, unfolding into the meditative calm of tobacco leaf, olive wood, and myrrh. Where its predecessor (Gucci Pour Homme, 2003) was smoke and swagger, this one was pure silk and stillness. There was a confident, intelligence to this stuff. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat you get is cozy sophistication, the rare fragrance that feels introspective, stoic and yet still magnetic. Again, absolutely perfect for this time of YEAR! The black tea accord is airy yet grounded, the cinnamon plays like an ember rather than a blaze, and the olive wood\/myrrh drydown evokes worn leather chairs and pages curled from time. If calm itself had a scent this just might be it! Seriously.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContinuum 004 isn’t imitation; it’s continuation. It’s the same contemplative quiet, newly brewed with modern precision and care. For those who prefer a well-placed comma over an exclamation point.

The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" on to.

And not the version sold today under the same name. I’m talking about Shulton’s Old Spice. Or as the shnerds call it, \"Shulton's\". That was my very first aftershave at age 15, and it left a permanent imprint on my soul. (possibly who\/what to blame for my interest in fragrances today!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eBack then, Old Spice wasn’t a novelty or a punchline in a flashy commercial. It was simply what men wore. You smelled it on fathers, grandfathers, teachers, barbers, scout leaders, coaches and even drum teachers. It lived in heavy glass bottles on porcelain sinks, and one splash carried real authority. It shaped how an entire generation understood grooming and growing up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eShulton introduced Old Spice for men in 1938, and the timing could not have been more significant. As World War II unfolded, Old Spice became closely tied to American servicemen. It traveled overseas in duffel bags and footlockers, splashed on before leave, before dates, before dances, and before shipping out again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eWhen the war ended, millions of men returned home carrying the scent with them. Old Spice didn’t just survive the war years, but in my humble opinion, it was forged in them. (and you get get that in the first whiff.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eThat post war era cemented Old Spice as an American institution. Through the 1940s, 50s, 60s, and well into the 70s, the formula remained remarkably consistent; Rich spice, floral backbone, warm ambered depth and, refined iconic epicness. It was bold without being harsh and comforting without being soft. Spend any time in the shave groups and you’ll see folks all saying the same thing. The vintage Shulton stuff simply had more presence. (Seriously, I don't think anyone has ever requested a dupe of modern Old Spice.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFun fact:\u003c\/b\u003e Old Spice actually began as a women’s fragrance! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eIn 1937, Shulton released Early American Old Spice as a perfume for women. The men’s aftershave followed a year later in 1938 and quickly eclipsed the original. That women’s launch is why the fragrance always carried a refined floral spine beneath the spice. Carnation was never an accident!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Year The Scent Faded Away\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eEverything came to a screeching halt in 1990 when Procter and Gamble acquired Old Spice from Shulton. In a short time after the sale, reformulations followed, driven by modern regulations, cost cutting, and shifting trends. The current version may share the name, but anyone who has used the original knows it is a very different animal.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe bottom line often destroys art, no?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eOut of respect, and for over a decade, I’ve danced around this scent. Cold Spices was our mentholated take, and when we released it, and less than a handful of artisans were even attempting anything Old Spice inspired. Later came Oud Spice. It was done more as a \"Study\" than a true tribute. I always stopped short of doing a straight homage.

The first are the sort that politely introduce themselves, shake your hand, and then spend the rest of the evening trying very hard not to offend anyone within a ten foot radius. The second type does not bother with introductions at all, and instead quietly rearranges the atmosphere around you until you begin to suspect that you may not be entirely alone. Some of you know exactly what I mean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eFiddler’s Friend is very much the second type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eIt begins, as all good misdirections do, with a touch of bergamot. Bright, agreeable, almost reassuring. The sort of opening that says, “Nothing to worry about here.” This is, of course, a lie. Because no sooner has that citrus flicker made its polite exit than the woods step in and take over the conversation entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eCedarwood arrives first, dry and confident, followed closely by oakmoss, which brings with it the unmistakable feeling that the ground beneath your feet has been there far longer than you have. Patchouli settles in like an old story that refuses to be forgotten, while spice moves through the composition in a way that suggests something is happening just out of sight, and possibly just out of reach. And then there is the musk. Not loud. Not unruly. Just…there. Observing. Waiting its turn. Twiddling its fingers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eAll of this would be more than enough for a perfectly respectable fragrance, but Fiddler’s Friend has never had much interest in being respectable. It prefers to ROCK!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eAround the fire pits of Camp Phoenix, there are stories. The sort that begin casually enough, usually with someone staring a bit too long into the flames, and then drift into territory that makes everyone else quietly check how far away the treeline actually is. There is talk of a melody that appears sometime after midnight. Some claim it is merely the wind slipping through the branches. Others insist it is the unmistakable sound of a bow drawn across strings that were never, under any reasonable circumstances, meant for human hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eAnd at the center of these stories is the Green Man.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eHe is said to play. Not often. Not for long. But when he does, things happen. Creatures stir. Shapes shift. Even the most stubborn skeptics begin to feel that perhaps remaining seated by the fire is an excellent idea after all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eOne camper, naturally, did not agree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eA boy named Harper once decided that curiosity was a far more sensible guide than caution. He slipped out into the night, following the sound into the snow. His footprints were clear. Direct. Determined. They led into a frozen clearing where, quite abruptly, they stopped. No sign of a struggle. No sign of a return. Just a single sprig of holly pressed into the soft snow, as if placed there with great care by something that did not feel the need to explain itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eThis fragrance captures that exact moment. Not the fear, but the realization that you may have misunderstood the rules. #ItHappens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eNow, as for how this all came to exist in a bottle, the story is, if anything, even less predictable. For real.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eThis fragrance is a real lost classic from about 2016. It was originally made for an old friend of mine who happens to be a genuinely excellent professional fiddle player. He had a fondness for my fragrances and, quite sensibly, decided that selling bottles of his own signature splash was far more interesting than the usual assortment of concert merchandise like t-shirts, CDs, or hats, all of which have the distinct disadvantage of not smelling like anything in particular. #TrySomethingDifferent\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eI made one batch. It sold out. I made a second. At no point did I think, “Yes, this will one day become a sought after artifact in the world of wet shaving.” In fact, I gave it very little thought at all, which, as it turns out, was a mistake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eBecause thanks to the peculiar economics of the internet, one of these bottles eventually found its way onto eBay, where it proceeded to sell for roughly 150 smackers. This caused a great deal of confusion among Shave Cadets, who quite reasonably began asking questions such as, “What is this?” and “Why have we never heard of it?” and “Is this some sort of elaborate joke?”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eFor the record, it was not a joke. I probably only ever made about 40 bottles!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eNaturally, once one person bought it, interest began to grow. Demand followed. The mystery deepened. And so, in a way that can only be described as inevitable in hindsight, Fiddler’s Friend quietly became the sort of thing people wanted precisely because they could not have it. Luckily, the scent is something special, VERY Special!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eFast forward nine years to the 2025 Advent Calendar, where Fiddler’s Friend made an unexpected reappearance. The reaction was immediate and, in some cases, impressively intense. Messages arrived. Requests multiplied. One individual was genuinely upset that we had, apparently, kept this scent from the shaving world for so long, which is both flattering and slightly alarming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eSo, here we are. Consider this full release a long overdue correction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eFiddler’s Friend is a whimsical, deeply atmospheric, unmistakably masculine blend that somehow slipped through the cracks of time and re-emerged as a full release 10 years later! It is, in every sense, a scent you almost never met.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eAnd now that you have, it might be wise to enjoy it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"p1\"\u003eJust…if you happen to catch a faint melody somewhere in the distance, you may want to stay where you are.

The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" on to.

Working next to him is when I \"caught it\", \u003cem\u003eAramis\u003c\/em\u003e. It's unmistakable, infectious, mysterious and Iconic. I truly believe everyone remembers exactly where they where when they smelled this mystery for the first time!  The whole experience burned the fragrance forever on to my brain. The scent notes seem to work or reinforce a \"smell track\" for that weekend; Crisp Fall Air, Fresh Cut Wood, Leather...\u003cstrong\u003eRugged and Classy all at the same time.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/5884\/files\/Screen_Shot_2017-09-13_at_12.19.09_PM_large.png?v=1505330613\" alt=\"\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eAs a collector of vintage aftershaves I happened to stumble upon an old bottle of \u003cem\u003eClint\u003c\/em\u003e by Avon, opened it up and BOOM, whipped back to the cabin with my uncle and brother...\u003cem\u003ewhat the heck?\u003c\/em\u003e I'm certain my uncle wore Aramis but this bottle of Clint, straight out of the 70's had me questioning my memory.

Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain. The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" on to. The glycerin acts as a humectant pulling more water into the hair, prepping and softening it, thus making it a bigger target to mow down!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/5884\/files\/CUBE_Preshave_Soap_Activated_Charcoal_Phoenix_Shaving_large.jpg?v=1506271554\" alt=\"Cube Preshave Soap\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" width=\"419\" height=\"320\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCUBE?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe release of \u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e has been a long time coming.
