Hi Everyone!
Our exclusive for /r/wetshaving, East Egg, the third scent in the Great Gatsby series, is now available for purchase as a soap, AS, and EdP! You can check the whole thing out here.
Just as a reminder, our Father's Day sale extends through today, so there's still time to get 20% off your non-East Egg purchases with the code THANKSDAD.
Here's the description:
The opulence of the 1920s was of such staggering magnitude that it forced a cultural shift in the United States not seen again for another four decades. Men wore tuxedos and drove fast cars, women smoked and drank and danced. Fortunes were made and lost nearly overnight, and cultural tensions abounded between new money and old and haves and have-nots.
Rich tobacco smoke perfumed the air, laced with plush fragrances wafted not only from the windows of gilded mansions but from the cigarettes and cigars themselves, as if their own natural aromas were somehow insufficient to satisfy America's appetites for excess and luxury.
But the nation's hunger for decadence was doomed to rot from the inside out, simultaneously fueled and sabotaged by the intricacies of class warfare, the existential panic inspired by the nouveau riche in wealthy plutocrat onlookers. East Egg captures this feeling of opulence on the precipice, of fortunes so volatile that they could be lost in the blink of an eye. Notes of nutmeg, lemon, bergamot, and clary sage open with scintillating sparkle, the flash of glittering affluence, and descend to a rich floral heart of ylang ylang, geranium, and violet. A base of sandalwood, amber, and vanilla buttresses the core, classic cigarette perfume of vetiver and vanilla, used for a decade to perfume both cigarette cases and their contents, and forever emblematic of America's most torrid century. Rich and sumptuous, East Egg is the distillation of Daisy Buchanan and her husband Tom, their bourgeois ways and careless luxuries carefully concealing the darkness that lies beneath.
I'm super pleased with how this turned out and hope you guys really love it. Thanks everyone! Have an awesome weekend!
