Description

Chypres ("SHEEP-ruhs") are perhaps our favorite family of fragrances here at Barrister and Mann®. They have a long and storied history, going all the way back to megalomaniac and perfume tycoon François Coty, who created the family in 1917 (and promptly sparked a fragrance revolution).

Inspired by smells indigenous to the island nation of Cyprus, Le Grand Chypre ("Leh Grond SHEEP-ruh") combines notes of bergamot, lime, labdanum, oakmoss, and a touch of patchouli to produce an elegant, citrusy heart. We wrapped it in notes of peach, rose, frankincense, cedar, cinnamon, and other supporting smells to create an elegant, slightly fruity, freshly floral design perfectly suited to the refined shaver.

Net Wt. 4 oz, Made in the USA

Directions for Use

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 and swirling your brush either on your face or in a lathering bowl. Shave, rinse, and spend your day feeling great.

New favorite Chypres scent

Le Grand Chypre is bright off of the tub with a citrus and floral blend that is lightly sweet and extremely pleasant to my nose. There are so many different notes that swirl together from whiffs off the tub, but when lathering begins, these begin to break down into an herbal melange. The remaining scent is a subtle blend of spice, resinous powder, and citrus. This end note is accentuated and extended by use of the aftershave, with plenty of longevity to last. What I find most interesting is that Le Grande Chypre is spicy, but in a “summery” way. Spice is usually accompanied by heavy, dark notes fitting for colder months, but in this case B&M have managed to combine bright citrus and subtle spice notes with an herbal patchouli in an entirely balanced way. It’s a truly fascinating take on the Chypre-genre, and it is my favorite Chypres scent. It is an all-season soap, but definitely a spring and summer favorite for me.

Fantastic!

I love this. It's my favorite scent from B&M, it's a pleasant woody smell slightly similar to zingari man's Collab with rogue. I have to say though this one is quite a bit better than ZM's it's less sharp and just all around wonderful and really elevates your shave. I also bought the splash I liked it so much! I definitely reccomend it!

Daily driver

Very interesting scent, the lime stands out to me in this one, but in a very subtle way. The Omnibus base is exquisite. Funny story, I had ordered LGC from Amazon, and the seller had shipped Lavonille. I mentioned it on Reddit twice. Not complaining, just disappointing. Will saw my comment and the first time asked if there was anything he could do. The second time he just DM'd me asking me for my address so he could send me the LGC, which he did. I love it. If you have not tried B&M soaps, do it now.
