Shaving Soaps
TRYPHON SOAPS
| Millefiori |
Our
MILLEFIORI scent is a complex blend of floral and herbal essences, with
subtle citrus undertones and a touch of wild mint. The first impact of
this complex fragrance is a trace of wild mint, enrichened by herbal
notes. This dissipates to reveal subtle citrus undertones and
eventually blossoms into a Cologne-type floral scent, which is
masculine and restrained, but has, nonetheless a lasting lingering
presence. |
|
|
|
Rosa |
The Rosa is a classic Rose soap, with a natural, pure rose scent. This soap uses natural rose water from Turkey as well as the highest grade rose fragrance oils available anywhere. The scent is close to the pure rose scent that was characteristic of old premier English soaps, now sadly no longer available. Formulated in Italy and now made in small batches in the US. This creamy soap produces a superb lather, smooth and silky and the rose scent is subtle, masculine and simply superb. If you long for the old Rose scent of the classic English soaps, this soap is what you have been waiting for. We think this is the ultimate rose soap. |
|
|
|
Alpino |
The Alpino is
the ultimate cooling and
soothing shaving soap! This luxury shaving soap offers the cooling
effect of menthol and eucalyptus, blended with other alpine herbs. This
soap uses exclusively Essential Oils for its distinctive scent. The
scent is reminiscent of an Alpine forest, with natural, balsamic herbs,
pine and evergreen undertones. This signature scent is minty fresh,
without the sweet perfume of a candy cane or the medicinal smell of a
medicated skin cream; it is just perfect, refined and understated. |
|
|
|
Legno di Sandalo |
We are proud to introduce our new Sandalwood soap. Our associates in Italy have come up with a fine new blend of sandalwood scents and produced a new soap formula, especially formulated for people with sensitive skin. This all new soap contains oils of avocado and cucumber in a pure, glycerin based opaque base. The soap has no coloring agents and the scent is masculine and woody. The lather is superb and very slick and the moisturizers soothe the skin and leave it smooth and relaxed. A mix of essential oils and highest grade fragrance oils is used in this superb soap. |
