ETHOS Grooming Essentials A New Line

Bergamotto set on the way. Thanks Dragonsbeard Frank for getting that re-stocked and out. I decided to hold off on the Mysore and first try layering citrus splashes with the Sandalo Artistico.

Regarding the three options on next soaps. I would lean towards Dragonsbeard as vanilla is not a strong fit for me as a stand alone scent. Not having tried Dragonsbeard I threw in an order of the bath soap just to get a directional sense of what it might be like. Plus it can join my Succes and Fresco bath soaps.

UPDATE: 



I’d like to thank everyone for their input on what 3 soaps are next on the schedule to make. The Dragonsbeard and Tonka Bean will be made almost simultaneously as I’ve got everything I need ready.  The Vanilla Safi will follow as I feel the Vanilla Bean infusion has a bit longer to go. 

I also am doing another project for the World Wildlife Foundation. As you know the last one was focused on raising awareness and money to help the Polar Bears. This one will be about the Tiger which btw has been my favorite animal since I was a little kid. I’m really excited about this project and also the Aroma Blend that will go into the products.  We have been working on the label design and will post a photo when it’s finished. 

There will be a Instagram contest for this release like I did with the King of the North which I will bring back at some point as I’ve had quite a few requests from customers. 

In between these releases I have a new project that I’ve been commissioned to do that has a Tobacco, Leather, Bourbon vibe to it.  More detail on that coming. 

As we move towards spring I’ll be focusing on not only some new Aroma Blends that fit the warm weather but also bring back some familiar ones like Fresco, Nuage De Citron, Vetivert, Lost Souls and Melage Di Agrume. 

Now that I have an assistant things will move along faster and I’m looking for another person to join the team. 

Oh and one important to me subject.  As you know I do take custom orders and I have a problem related to that I need to address. It’s been a bit of a nightmare trying to keep track of all different ways customers contact me on these custom orders.  I get PM’s, DM’s, FB and WhatsApp messages, texts from folks that get my business cell, emails on my personal email from those that know it and honestly  it’s a bit overwhelming trying to keep track.  So I’m asking anyone that’s looking to have a customer order made please contact me on the ETHOS email that’s provided on the website. I’d like to keep all requests and custom orders in one place. 

With that said I do very much enjoy interacting with my customers both with phone chats so please don’t hesitate to contact me if you’d like to have one. I’ve had conversations with many of you on the phone and most know it’s best to text me firs to set up a time. This is also in some cases a must do if we are doing a custom project for you. I do have customers that live in other countries and don’t speak English so emails do work better for that situation. 

Wow that was a long one! Lol 

That’s it for now guys! 

Great shaves all

Fresco and Vetivert came and went before I was introduced to ETHOS.  I hope your plans pan out as I've been eyeing these two.

Absolutely making those two this spring. I enjoy them both myself and I’m totally out of my Vetivert shave soap as I only took home like 1.5 oz as it was left over from the batch.  I can kick myself for not making more of it.

I will echo those exact same two as well. Those are at the top of my list, although I technically have only sampled Fresco in bath soap form.

I am trying to be patient, but what happened to the Sandalo SFS? I have been checking hourly since you said you were going to restock, I would have had you save one, but you said there’s plenty.

Fantastic news!! I'm really looking forward to scoring my first set of Dragonsbeard! Thank you Frank!

I’m sorry sir

When I told you I would put some back in stock well I did do that on my phone and I must have not hit the save button. So I’m my mind I had them back in stock but obviously that was not the case. They are up on the site now.

I’ll be making it on Saturday and it will be available in the 4 oz black plastic jar or in the 5 oz Black Glass jar. There are a limited amount of the glass jars and those will be on a first come basis. I’ll post up when I have the release date

Thank you sir for your input.

I was very hesitant to keep bugging you, but in this case it was for the best apparently. Thank you Frank, I have just placed my order. I am still enjoying the Bergamotto! The Sandalo is perfect for my orphan soaps.
