Sorry, I've been posting about this on my social media channels since last week and sent out an email to my email list announcing it last week, as well. The email list is the best way to stay on top of any sale announcements as it's the first place I always put out the news.

Oh no big deal Shawn. My purchases have been tiny and I’m not worried at all. I was just playing around

I will, however, sign up for the newsletters and start following you on social media for next time.

Edit - I can’t seem to find Facebook or Instagram pages. Am I blind?

Either search for Chatillon Lux (two "L" and one "T" in Chatillon) or use the handle @ChatillonLux

Shawn, as we approach the release date for Santal Auster, have you finalized plans for the Parfum? Cost? Bottle size? Thanks!

That is a good question. I found out on Friday that there may be some snafus with getting the packaging in on time, along with some other stuff, so there may be a delay. Mainly because I feel like it would be better to do it right rather than to find a discount place that would spit everything out for fast and cheap. Definitely learning some lessons when it comes to importing items, etc. Also, my day job has been just nuts, but I plan on leaving soon to concentrate on Chatillon Lux, so there's that.

For pricing, we're just about there. It is a bit more difficult as we will just be selling the shaving items through Declaration Grooming just because I have so much on my plate at the moment that we feel like it would be better to go about it that way to make sure people receive all the items at the same time and as quickly as possible. Declaration will also be selling the Parfum Extrait, but that one I will be also selling, as well, plus I will be sending it out to retailers since it is permanent.

I can say that the Parfum Extrait, which expands upon the basic Santal Auster sandalwood accord to include oud, opoponax, styrax, amyris and patchouli, will be $90. It contains 5% natural sandalwood oil that is sustainably and responsibly harvested and is also similar to mysore sandalwood, the richest and most sought after variant in sandalwood oils. It will be at 40% concentration.

The shaving-product scent (aka straight sandalwood accord) of Santal Auster will also contain real sandalwood essential oil, although I don't remember the percentage off the top of my head. Because of the very, very high cost of the raw scent materials used we wouldn't be able to put the extrait accord in shaving products and keep it in the non-astronomical level, but the shaving-product accord will still contain 3% sandalwood essential oil.

We'll figure out the shave product prices once we find a happy medium between people getting outraged about the price and us losing our asses on the products because it is so expensive to make. It's a bit of a no-win situation, but I am super happy with how the modified scent in both the shaving accord and the extrait have turned out. This release was put together to mark the launch of the Santal Auster Parfums line, however, which is meant to explore the possibilities of scent creation without having to worry about budget constraints as much. So I'm sure no matter what not there will be some angry emails fired off about the prices, but for the raw material cost and the R&D costs over the past year, it really adds up.
