Tax Man
Hendrix Classics & Co
Hendrix Classics & Co (HC&C) was founded by Pete Hendrix, who originally began by making handcrafted straight razors. He later pivoted into shave soaps, aftershaves, EDTs, and accessories, and today sells a complete line of shaving products. HC&C shave soaps are known for using high quality ingredients, with most taking their fragrance inspiration from well known men's colognes and perfumes. The company has a storefront called Luxury Fragrance & Shave in Hermitage Tennessee.
Scent Description
Tax Man is is based on Paco Rabanne's 1 Million Lucky, which is a prime example of the shift to new fruits in modern men's fragrances. The top notes of plum, grapefruit, and bergamot create a mellow fruity sweetness which is soft and round. The addition of honey and hazelnut in the heart notes adds a nutty, sweet, warmth which is inviting and comforting. Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Vetiver add complexity and depth. Combined, Tax Man is an energetic, alluring, and creamy melange which feels flirtatious, cozy, and rich. A great everyday scent, which can be worn day or night, at home or the office, and holds up on date night.
