Based on one of the oldest forms of perfume, Cologne Russe is a throwback to a scent created by the House of Guerlain for the Russian royal family and discontinued in the early twentieth century.

We blend lemon, bergamot, petitgrain, and herbs with violet, rose, bay, and amber to produce a rich, beautifully fresh scent derived from the colognes of old. The scent is distinctly warmer than most other cologne-type fragrances, owing largely to its inclusion of castoreum, benzoin, and vanilla. Clean and elegant without the aloofness of some other scents, Cologne Russe is the perfect way to brighten your morning.

Net wt. 4 oz, Made in the USA

Wet your shaving brush well, then swirl it around the jar for roughly thirty seconds or until a rich, creamy lather is formed. Continue building the lather by adding water (lots and LOTS of it) and swirling your brush either on your face or in a lathering bowl. Shave, rinse, and spend your day feeling great.

Great addition to my collection

I’ve been a regular Barrister & Mann customer for some time now, but I had never tried Cologne Russe. I thought it might be too strong of a scent. I recently purchased and I enjoy the subtle smell. It’s a great addition to my rotation.

One of a kind

Barrister and Mann have created an exceptional shaving soap with a highly unique and sophisticated fragrance and unmatched slickness, lathering and moisturizerizing characteristics. This is definitely not your average, everyday shaving soap. I use it for special occasions!
