The creators at Subtle Art Soap Co., led by a U.S. Coast Guard veteran, crafted this amazing blend to teleport you right back to that cherished barbershop chair. The Mid Cape Barber is a masterful mix of bergamot, lemon, lavender, a hint of mint, and a robust base of cedarwood, sandalwood, musk, and amber. It\u2019s like stepping straight into a barbershop with every shave! \ud83e\ude92\ud83c\udf3f<br><br>\ud83e\uddfc Using just a small scoop, I whipped up a thick, yogurt-like lather with my trusty @Misticbrush, perfect for a smooth, triple-pass shave. But look at this leftover lather in the pic \u2014 I could go for six passes easy! That&#8217;s what I call trooper efficiency! \ud83c\udf1f<br><br>\ud83e\ude92 For the shave, I paired it with my classic Gillette Tech razor and a sharp Nacet blade to honor the traditional vibes of this phenomenal scent.<br><br>\ud83d\udca5 This scent isn\u2019t just a fragrance; it\u2019s a journey back in time, and it&#8217;s quickly ranked as one of the top barbershop scents in my Grooming Garrison. Join me in celebrating the art of shave with #SubtleArtSoap this week. \ud83c\udf96\ufe0f<br><br>\ud83d\udd14 Don\u2019t forget to tune in for our upcoming Q&amp;A with the makers behind these stellar scents!
