The Shaving, a true (crime) Phoenix Shaving Christmas Tradition, The Annual Cyber Monday "Ray Rum" (The Shaving) Release! Fun Fact: The Shaving is A Decade Old this year!
WELCOME & Enjoy Your Stay: Excerpt From 2020 Release:
BOOOOOOM! Now this is a release I never thought we'd see again! 2020 has definitely had a huge downside, but also a silver shining, I mean "Lining"! The biggest would be the return of Ray Pope to the shave world! And it's this my friends that made this EPIC Reboot a reality!
However, it's not an exact replication, it's BUTTER! Ahem, I mean...BETTER! Yes my friends, inspired by Ray Pope's triumphant return and also hoping to get him doing vids again, I went all out!
Scent Profile: Buttery Vanilla, Fresh Whipped Cream, Toffee, a dash of Nutmeg, toasted Coconut, Select West Indian Herbs, Benzoin Resin, Peppermint*, Spices & more than a few glorious Citrus Notes (lime & blood orange)! This is so much more than a holiday scent, THIS is a Loaded Bay Rum! [*Peppermint Hydrosol in Aftershave]
Those of you who have been around for a while know Ray Pope really enjoys Bay Rums; Masters, Boosters, etc, you know, the classics. You also know how I feel about bay rum. So yes folks, I have whipped together another new take on traditional Bay Rum, A Butter Bay Rum!!!! To me it feels like Ray Rum, a scent released so long ago is FINALLY Complete! I'm honestly not sure why I didn't give it such a thorough treatment way back, but I am more than happy to right this wrong now! (seems to be the theme in the newsletter)
The Shaving "Ray Rum" was originally released December 19, 2014 to a Shave World few of you new folk would recognize. Seriously, it was a whole different animal. Maybe 25 artisans, a handful of brushmakers and nothing really interesting in the razor department. Modern single edge GEM type razors and Adjustables were non-existent for the most part.
On top of that, Holiday scents were minuscule and rather boring, especially when it came to label designs & themes! I know it's popular to argue that Die Hard is a Christmas movie, but even that argument was tired way back in 2014...But The Shining? Now That's my "Christmas Movie" of choice and worth pointing out to anyone who will listen. [Pointing this out would usually involve copious amounts of rum, so there's that too.]
What we didn't have in product offerings, we made up for in having a good time!
At the same time, Ray Pope and Anthony "The Stallion" Esposito were in the middle of an EPIC almost WWF-esque, YouTube Lather Battle. Each trying to one up the other and all in good fun. By this time I believe Ant had his very own Stallion Soap but as for Ray, nada. So with all this in mind for some reason, The Shaving "Ray Rum" Just Made Sense! A Double Homage, to the bad boys of shaving and the world's greatest Christmas Movie ever, The Shining!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Have A Very Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!!! Thank You So Much For Your Support Through The Years & over the last 4 days (that was exhausting, in a good way)! Fran, Hux & I are VERY Grateful! SPECIAL THANKS to the man himself, my old pal, RAY POPE!!! Also, thank you Stallion for playing a supportive role and being a good sport! Thanks for still making this fun after soooo many years fellas!
A Merry Shavemas 2024 to all the Shave Cadets out there, past, present & future!
