Declaration Grooming Son et Lumiere Artisan Shaving Soap, 4oz – Milksteak Base
Son et Lumiere, sound and light, is a distant cousin petrichor-esque scent to Bangarang. Where Bangarang is a rainy adventure in the woods, Son et Lumiere is a drizzly autumn walk through a (clean) city. Leaves, pavement, and the distinct scent of rain make a crisp, approachable-yet-nuanced accord.
BASE: Milksteak is my tongue-in-cheek name for the culmination of all of my soap crafting experience to date. While the name may be whimsical, it was an incredibly difficult decision to deprecate Bison and Icarus – one I would not make without full confidence that I was releasing not only the best soap base I have ever developed, but one of the finest soap bases ever created.
Over three years of customer feedback, research, theory crafting and, of course, love, went into this soap base. I focused on ease of use (softer than Icarus), slickness, and post-shave – all the hallmarks of a great soap.
