Holy Smoke

Holy Smoke! Frankincense, Myrrh, Incense smoke, candle wax, this scent evokes church and whatever that experience means to you. Frankincense has been burned ritualistically for as long as we've knew of it's existence, from the deserts of the middle east to the Vatican. Adding smoke elements helps to elevate this scent to really capture the feeling of actually burning incense.

Scarab 

Scarab is a polarizing scent. Red Egyptian musk, from the Ambrette plant and the only musk derived from a grain, is said to be the worlds most alluring aphrodisiac. Powerful and long lasting, fragrant musk is mixed with heartwoods and a touch of rose to tame the sometimes overwhelming musk notes.

This Is Christmas

So… This is Christmas. This is literally what Christmas smelled like in our house growing up. This is the one fragrance for this Secret Stash drop that we are the most excited about.  A little bit of light fruit top notes with spicy undertones. Fresh pine needles and cinnamon peek their head through a Christmas wreath and hot apple cider simmers on the hearth. Perfect for that Christmas morning shave and the rest of the winter, or whenever you want to revisit the holidays.. Seasons Greetings from The Holy Black!

Superhit

Is this the greatest Nag Champa based fragrance ever made? We think so. A mix of the classic incense notes, Frangipani (Plumeria) and Sandalwood, we also added a healthy dose of West Indian Vanilla which emulates, what we think is the greatest incense ever produced; Sai Baba SuperHit. Sweet and smooth is probably the best way to describe it and every note in this fragrance tends to be a clinger, so be prepared for people to ask about it when you use this soap.

Galleon

The scent of this soap is reminiscent of days at sea on a large vessel through the Caribbean. Ocean breeze, salt air, oak, leather and dark rum will transport you to a time of pirates and privateers.

Candied Chestnut
Sweet and nutty, "Candied Chestnut" embodies the festive spirit of winter markets. The scent unfolds with the roasted warmth of chestnuts drizzled in golden caramel, mingled with a whisper of cinnamon and clove. A touch of vanilla bean and buttery praline enhances its gourmand appeal, creating a fragrance that's as irresistible as the treat it's inspired by.

Lady Killer
Seductive and bold, "Lady Killer" is a fragrance designed to turn heads. It begins with a burst of citrus zest—bright bergamot and sparkling grapefruit—leading into a heart of white florals, jasmine, and orange blossom. Base notes of warm amber and smooth musk give the scent a lingering allure, while a hint of black pepper adds a provocative edge. This is confidence in a bottle.

Savage
Raw yet refined, "Savage" captures the untamed spirit of wilderness with a modern edge. It opens with a burst of crisp bergamot, evoking the energy of open skies at dusk. A heart of spicy Sichuan pepper and aromatic lavender adds depth and intrigue, while the base resonates with smoky woods and earthy ambergris, creating a rugged sophistication. Bold and enduring, this is a scent for those who embrace their primal nature with effortless elegance.

Irish Countryside
Fresh and invigorating, "Irish Countryside" captures the essence of rolling green hills and clear blue skies. Inspired by the classic Irish Spring, this fragrance opens with crisp notes of fresh-cut grass, citrus, and dewy aldehydes. A heart of lily of the valley and clean, soapy accords evoke the purity of spring water. The base is grounded with hints of moss and soft cedar, offering a refreshing and nostalgic finish.

Tangerine Creeper

Tangerine Creeper is the ultimate set for this summer. Bright citrus is brought forth in pure Tangerine essential oil, fully encompassing yet fleeting enough for the summer months. The addition of Koolada provides the Creeper element as your face slowly gets colder with no hint of mint fragrance or the burning eyes of a classically mentholated soap or splash. The cold can last up to 45 minutes!

Invigorate 

The name tells you all you need to know. Energizing, fresh and vaporous this is designed to wake you up and keep you up. For those morning or late night shavers, this stuff is made specifically for you.  Eucalyptus, Camphor, Spearmint, Magic. 

Bay Whiskey Lime

Our Original Scent, and still available in our Supermax Pomade, Bay Whisky lime is made from Bay Oil,(Pimenta Racimosa) and Lime essential oils to bring you the closest thing to what those pirates and privateers were using in the west indies in the 1600s. Light, fleeting and fresh, this is a perennial favorite.

Ruby Red Creeper

Bright citrus is brought forth in pure Red Grapefruit essential oil, fully encompassing yet fleeting enough for the summer months. The addition of koolada creates a long lasting, creeping cooling sensation that lasts up to 45 minutes and is 30x stronger than menthol without the peppermint smell or vapors. Truly unique.

Lemon Ice

Meyer Lemon Essential oil and koolada andnothing else, as perfect lemon as you can get, and the cold sensation lasts up to 45 minutes without a hint of mint!

Sandalwood Smoke

Sandalwood oil has been used for thousands of years and it is a staple in the shaving world. If you don't own at least one sandalwood soap, cream or aftershave, you are missing out one of the most luxurious classic scents made specifically for a man. I have also added a slight hint of woodsmoke to further the masculine undertones of the sandalwood

Memento Mori

Inhale fresh earth, the cypress trees in the cemetary in the crisp air of October, almost taste the ripe fruit, smell the imperial roses, corps iris, and even the lingering scent of fresh cement to remind you that your life on earth is fleeting. Far from macabre, Memento Mori is the celebration of life, a reminder to live every day to it's fullest.
