Scent Description
Homestead Barbershop is a truly unique take on a classic genre. Although it's a true Fougère due to the presence of Oakmoss, Coumarin, and Lavender, the strong notes of Clove and Geranium add a warm, sweetness which is familiar and comforting. The presence of Basil, Rosemary, Bitter Orange and Black Pepper add a subtle, spicy depth, and the underpinning of Patchouli, Oakmoss, White Musk and Guaic Wood add a dry, hazy etherealness which binds it all together. Homestead Barbershop is calm and inviting, and will be welcome in almost any daytime setting making it extremely versatile and easy to wear at home or in the office.
