SIN Alcohol Based - Fragrance Free Silky Aftershave Splash - Hedione, Liquid Silk, Aloe, Glycerin & More!
This may be a first...Scentless Aftershave Splash with Killer, Silky Post Shave Feel! (With an add your own Menthol Option. See Drop Down)
Sin was inspired by my good friend Tim Blem, who recently requested I make him a scent free splash. Not that he doesn't care for my scents, it's just that he loves the "feel" of my blends and wanted something neutral to use with everything. Granted I do make a Fragrance Free/ Alcohol Free Tonic and had thought of a scentless AS...but didn't think it would sell, until Tim's request! So here we go!

I am making Mentholated "Optional" and DIY, or "Do It Yourself". That means, you can choose from the drop down "w/ Menthol". You will receive 1.8 grams of menthol crystals in which you can add to the Splash yourself! You can also, and I encourage this, add about 30 drops of your own favorite essential oils too and create your very own custom PAA Splash...BOOM! That said, this is perfect for both men and women!
Why SIN?
Just wanted to clarify for some folks that may take some kind of offense to the name...it's in Spanish not English. SIN simply means "without", like Sans in French. But who knows, maybe there is a duality to the name after all, lets see what you do with it, shall we? Options are good.
Hedione?
Although it has long been debated whether humans can actually communicate via pheromones - the chemical signals secreted by animals to help find a mate - Researchers have found that scent of Hedione generates ‘sex-specific activation patterns’ in the nasal tissue which links to the brain. It is the first time that a scent has been known to activate the pheromone receptor VN1R in humans.
“These results constitute compelling evidence that a pheromone effect different from normal olfactory perception indeed exists in humans,” says scent researcher Prof Hanns Hatt fro, Ruhr-Universität Bochum in Germany.
Hedione (chemical name methyl dihydro-jasmonate) – derived from the Greek word “hedone”, for fun, pleasure, lust – has a pleasant fresh jasmine-magnolia scent and is used in many perfumes.
It is synthesised from the organic compound methyl jasmonate which was discovered in 1957 and which is important in plants for seed germination, root growth, flowering, fruit ripening, and senescence.
NOTE On Adding Menthol Crystals: We recommend you ad a little at a time...not all at once. Ex. ad half a crystal to the Splash and allow a few hours for it to dissolve, shake and apply to test. This is typically good. If you want to increase chill repeat process until level of cool is achieved. Add menthol at your own "risk", we are not responsible if you over mentholate to your taste. Sorry, have to include that.
