From Gentleman's Nod:
The next installment of our collaboration with the house of Zaharoff has arrived. This time with an updated shave soap base C4.
Zaharoff Signature CITRINE is the first "freshie" in the collection. Instead of using typical oils that one connects with a "freshie" fragrance, we decided to build an oil around the Zaharoff incense from the Signature line with something more unconventional - clementine
Clementine is a hybrid of mandarin and sweet orange and when the oil of clementine peel is extracted, it comes across as a wild orange with hints of lemon. We then played with actual sweet orange and mandarin to increase the experience...and what an experience!
CITRINE is a true blast of citruses while staying true to the Zaharoff Signature DNA.
C4 is really a complete overhaul of the Cardinal base. It combines the result of countless hours of R&D and input from testers. This base loads extremely fast, lathers easily and offers improvements in performance across the board. Perhaps the most unique quality of this base is that you can build a great lather very quickly or continue to hydrate to build a truly exceptional lather. The lather quality seems to improve with each pass!
