Bespoke #1 Shaving Soap

  • Sale
  • Regular price $21.99


"The scent of the soap is so intricate, just opening the tub is an experience." - M.S.

Bespoke #1 has its roots in the annual charity auction put on at badgerandblade.com  in which we donated a batch of custom soap as an item to be auctioned off. 

 

As a result of a collaboration with the winning bidder, we came up with Bespoke #1, a very complex yet earthy scent that is very fitting for the winter season. The ingredients for this scent include:

  • Vetiver Essential Oil
  • Ancient Fossilized Himalayan Amber Oil
  • Frankincense Essential Oil
  • Opopanax (Sweet Myrrh)
  • Clove Essential Oil
  • Pepper Essential Oil
  • Bergamot Essential Oil
  • Patchouli Essential Oil
  • Cedar Essential Oil
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Anise Extract
  • Labdanum Absolute

This is a very earthy scent, with a vetiver base augmented by amber, frankincense, sweet myrrh, pepper, clove, and cedar. If you're one of those who treats shaving as a ritual, this soap (which includes components that have been used in incense and fragrance for millennia), should complement that nicely. 

Please note that this is our new French red clay base, which provides excellent slickness and post-shave that rivals any tallow soap while remaining true to our vegan roots.  This base needs a little less water than a lot of other soaps on the market, so load using a damp brush then add water to the point where a thick creamy slick lather is achieved.

Ingredients: Stearic Acid, Palm Kernel Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Glycerin, Shea Butter, Castor Oil, Water, Aloe Vera Juice, Essential Oils (Vetiver Essential Oil, Himalayan Amber Oil (in Sunflower Oil), Frankincense Essential Oil, Opopanax (Sweet Myrrh) Essential Oil, Clove Essential Oil, Pepper Essential Oil, Bergamot Essential Oil, Patchouli Essential Oil, Cedar Essential Oil, Vanilla Extract, Anise Extract, Labdanum Absolute (in Sunflower Oil)).  , French Red Clay, Sodium Lactate, Allantoin (comfrey plant).

Each tub contains at least 4 oz of shaving soap in an 8oz container

Fell in love with the scent...

As a proud Los Angeleno, I had to this brand go. At first when I took a whiff from the sample I bought, I thought it was strange. Over the course of the week I used the sample, the scent grew on me. Now I can't get enough of the tub I bought. I really dig the dark earthy/peppery scent it has. After I finish the current tub of Bespoke #1 I'm buying another one... along with the 2 other scents I purchased. But the main reason for the 5 star review, is that I *LOVE* the post shave feel from LA Shaving Soap Co. That's what sets apart from the other brands of soap that I have in rotation here at home. It's the only vegan soap I own, and I get irritation free shaves from this soap as I do from the tallow based soaps I have. And I mean irritation free -I throw on some Bespoke #1 after shave, and all I feel is the cooling sensation of the menthol. Top notch product here.

Bespoke is excellent!

While Bespoke is a great shaving soap/Aftershave set, the best part isn't just the it lathers. The scent, which is lasting, isn't really "loud". Bespoke has a quiet elegance.

Love this stuff!

I’m rounding the bottom of the Topanga and Santa Monica shave soaps I bought... a while back, so I ordered more (nice new packaging and exciting to try the new formulations!) and got a bunch more for friends. You’ll never go back!

Excellent soap

Lathers well and has excellent slipperyness. Great scent as well. One of the beat soaps I have used over the years. I will be ordering again.
