Doppelgänger Plum Star Jelly Aftershave | A Whole New Species of Aftershave! | Homage To A Discontinued Masterpiece
Introducing Doppelgänger Plum!
Doppelganger Plum, our latest homage to the much sought-after, discontinued Plum Japonais by Tom Ford is now at hand!
Scent Profile: Cinnamon, Saffron, Japanese Plum, Plum Blossom, Immortelle, Liquor, Camellia, Cypress, Smokey Oud, Amber, Benzoin, Fir, Vanilla
A warm, fragranced, tropical wind blows through moonlit, glistening, whispering palms while you slowly savor a short glass of the best rum you've ever had in your life. On this warm breeze, there is also a hint of mystery undulating in the air. The moon hangs honey like amber in the middle of the horizon, a trail of light before it slithering like a snake on the surface of the ocean.
Gentle waves can be heard but not seen from where you currently sit, lazily lapping at the shore as you people watch and sip, perched unnoticed on a corner table like a hired man absorbed in his drink, with an eye on the cyber twins in the corner, out of time, out of place, observing you, observing them, unlike yourself...out of synch.
Becoming self conscious you turn away abruptly and scan the nightclub; dimly lit, scattered, dreamy eyed strangers sway to the sultry music that slow drips from the clubs soundsystem drawing you in. Then there is that scent; sensual, exotic, divine and seductive. You turn back to the corner and the twins are gone...
Anything is possible on a night like this, in a place like this. Anything.
This is the steamy, sensuous world of Doppelgänger Plum and the visions it evokes in my mind. For you it may be something completely different...but I doubt it. The music escaping the scene is definitely Sade's Sweetest Taboo. Trust me. (Infact humor me now and cue up Sweetest Taboo on your device for an audible version of the scent!)
That said, I need to cast a shout out to Timothy Spencer, a customer of ours, but also a complete frag head! He is the one that brought this classic to our attention and demanded something must be done in order to rectify this cruel move by Tom Ford...who would ever discontinue such a masterpiece? Really, boggles the mind! Maybe he never tried it as a shave soap. Hee, hee, hee...(but seriously, Plum is the bomb. do the kids still say that, the bomb?)
ahem...
Super sophisticated & smooth, dare I say boozy smooth? Warm, Spicy, Dark, Smokey, Fruity, Resinous and again, sensual. You cannot escape the balanced sensuality of it.
Fran and I are really looking forward to everyone's thoughts on Doppelgänger Plum and hope you enjoy this one as much as we have. Oh and speaking of us, I should mention...this scent is considered unisex! Yup, meaning she's almost guaranteed to love it on you...or on her...or maybe both? We don't judge here. Just enjoy the heck out of this one folks. Now, you may return to that tropical reverie and stay as long as you like!
If an aftershave balm and alcohol based splash were to have a baby, our Star Jelly Aftershave Formula would be their love child. Not to be confused with an alcohol free balm, meaning; this stuff still contains alcohol and a kiss of menthol to give you that classic splash feel at first. Then there is that familiar cool down we all know and love...but something more is going on, something cosmic!
Unlike traditional balms, our Star Jelly absorbs rapidly into freshly shaven skin without any greasy, heavy feeling build up! Star Jelly leaves your skin moisturized and silky. A refreshing, alternative that you instantly will fall in love with!
What's Inside?
Allantoin: a naturally ocurring nitrogenous compound used as a skin conditioning agent. It can be derived from animals, however the allantoin we use is derived from plants.
Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides: from coconut oil and glycerin, it’s considered an excellent emollient. It’s included in cosmetics due to its mix of fatty acids that skin can use to resist moisture loss. This ingredient’s value for skin is made greater by the fact that it’s considered gentle.
Vegetable Glycerine: is derived from soy and is used in cosmetics and body care products to assist in retaining moisture. It is invaluable as a natural source ingredient with emollient like properties which can soften the skin.
