Barrister and Mann Mélange Shaving Soap Sample – Seasonal Release
Arrakis. Dune. The only source of the most valuable substance in the known universe, the one that has the power to make or break an empire: The Spice.
The fundamental force underlying Frank Herbert’s famously influential and notoriously complex work Dune, the Spice Mélange, often known simply as “the spice,” is a powerful psychoactive that makes space travel within the story possible. Without it, the mutated navigators of the Spacing Guild cannot predict the flight paths of interstellar starships, and flying blind in such a fashion is a good way to materialize from warp space inside the heart of a star.
In case you can’t tell, we’re huge fans of Dune at Barrister and Mann, so, in honor of both one of our favorite novels of all time as well as its recent cinematic adaptation, we wanted to create something truly special. Thus was born Mélange, our interpretation of the scent of the spice itself.
Notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cardamom, bay, musk, and desert air blend to produce an intensely spicy, all-encompassing aroma that brings to mind remote deserts, underground cultures, and the rumblings of revolution.
Please note: While we have made every effort to reduce the allergen activity of Mélange, if you’re very sensitive to cinnamon or other spices, we recommend picking up a sample before purchasing any full size products.
Also, please note that the unique composition of Mélange fragrance has made this soap slightly sticky in texture. We recommend lighter loading practices in general, and a synthetic brush if possible, for optimal use.
