Nocturne Shaving Soap

24.99 Sale Save

Anyone who’s been there will tell you that, in New England, Autumn is the best time of year. The trees turn vivid colors, the weather becomes perfectly brisk, and the apple and corn crops are harvested and made into all kinds of wonderful foods to enjoy. The scent of woodsmoke fills the air and fallen leaves litter the ground, crunching pleasantly underfoot wherever you go. It’s a wonderful time, and at the center of it all is the cider mill.

Cider mills are incredible places. The smell of apples suffuses the walls and a wood fire usually burns in the corner. Trays and trays of apple cider donuts fill the tables and counters next to carafes of hot cider and coffee. The buildings smell wonderful and we wanted to capture that smell in soap form. After long experimentation, we blended the scents of apples, newly fallen leaves, woodsmoke, benzoin, and the faintest touch of cinnamon to create a slightly smokey, faintly spicy, wonderful scent perfect for the crisp, clear days of Autumn.

The Soap

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.

Takes me back.

Email notification came in saying this was available. I ordered a whole tub. It came in yesterday and I just had my first head shave a few hours ago.

Everything about this soap performs exactly like everything else from B&M, no surprise there! Slickness, cushion, protection and scent level; checks all the boxes.

The scent is supposed to be that of a cider mill. Pressing the apples, the wood fire going, tasting the cider and eating the doughnuts… He nailed it. As kids we spent a ton of time in the cider mills in Ohio during autumn and the sugar shack in early spring making syrup. I can say this soap takes me back to those times.

Heavy apple cinnamon scent, combined with the smell of jumping into a leaf pile as the neighbor burned their pile of leaves. I quite enjoyed this soap, it brings back a lot of fond memories. The Mrs. Says it smells better on my head than In the tub. Will be shaving with this again tomorrow!

4 hour update: I can still smell the apple cinnamon. The scents of apple, cinnamon, leaves, and smoke have all mellowed out and blended together to seamlessly create the scent of heavenly autumn harvest.

10/10 you guys have to try this soap.
