The Absinthe ” shaving soap reveals a scent of aniseed freshness , slightly minty . You will be seduced by its icy and energizing color which enhances the aromatic flavor of Star anise , Fennel and Green Anise. The creamy foam of your shaving soap deliciously infused with this energizing, subtle and herbaceous scent . Like the Belle Époque drink , this Absinthe shaving soap takes on the green notes and delicate bitterness of this astonishing spirit .

Martin de Candre soaps are handmade, vegan and good for all skin types including sensitive skin.

This is an expensive, luxury shaving soap but it will last around 12 months daily use. The longevity of the soap is down to many weeks the air drying process Martin de Candre applies to each puck of soap. Air drying for weeks on end hardens the soap and removes any moisture in the mix. What you get is a dense, hard-packed shaving soap.

The soap is made by a small team in Fontevraud l'Abbaye, rural France.

 

50g of superbly scented, luxury, handmade French shaving soap.
Comes in a recyclable PETG plastic jar with screw top lid.

The main advantages of the MdC shaving soap by Martin de Candre :

We have elaborated a unique hot process soap-making method which we have been using in our workshop for 40 years with perfect control over the quality process, using 100% natural essential oils (olive, coconut) and potash (Alkali).
A soap made with this process ensures excellent heat retention without adding any preservatives.
At the end of cooking, we add the finest essential oils to the warm paste which allows us to have scented soaps right to their core.
It takes weeks for the soap to dry and to rid all excess water and refine itself. In our day and age where everything goes fast, it may seem crazy...  but this is the only sure way to greatly enhance shaving soap lather and fragrance properties!
A luxury top quality product, manufactured by a French craftsman, ... and yet one of the cheapest as it lasts a good year going by your feedback and comments.
Finally, let's describe its lather qualities:

The lather thickens rapidly, with a few brush swirls and gives a satisfying close and clean shave that helps skin feel great and moisturised without razor burn. The lather is nice and rich, soft and creamy, extremely pleasant to the skin ... YOU know to talk about it in the best possible way!
