The Scent

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. 1 oz, Made in the USA

Well worth the price

The shaving soap base is exceptional. It takes a little work in lathering it up, but will produce a yogurty dense cream. Lots of cushion and when rinsed off leaves a great post shave feel. I would recommend a synthetic shaving brush.

My least favorite scent so far

I purchased several samples from B&M to get a better idea of the range and which products I should buy next. I have to say that Le Grand Chypre is my least favorite scent. It is too bright for me (I believe it is the bergamot). It is still a great shaving soap, thanks to the fabulous base from B&M, but I like all their other scents better, just a personal preference.

Elegant!

I smell moss, lime, salt water. My inner eye has me walking along a rocky trail on an island in the Mediterranean. It smells of vacation and elegance (how does that smell anyway?).
LIke all B&M soaps, it lather like a charm and takes water like a fire hose. If there is one thing, you need to know when using this: Add more water!
