Chicago
Razorock
Razorock was founded in Canada by Joseph Abbatangelo, who in 2009 enlisted his uncle, Michael Luorio, to take a trip to Tuscany in search of alum stones for Joseph's father-in-law, a retired Italian barber. After falling in love with all things Wet Shaving, they launched the Razorock brand which has grown into a complete product line spanning soaps, aftershaves, razors, and accessories. The brand is known for quality at an affordable price, with many of its products sourced from local Italian artisans. One early partnership was with the Tcheon Fung Sin Soap Company, founded by a Chinese immigrant to Italy in 1945, which produces many of its soaps and aftershaves.
Scent Description
It's generally believed that the inspiration for Chicago is Issey Miyake's L'eau d'Issey Pour Homme. How true is up for debate, but Chicago is a light, floral scent with a modest amount of citrus blended expertly with amber and a hint of woods to create a gentlemanly melange which is soft, summery, sweet, and complex. It can be worn at almost any time for any occasion, and as the the scent strength is modest is discrete while maintaining an air of elegance and sophistication.
