MacDuff's Soap Company Aftershave- Morning Ritual

Notes: Dark Chocolate, Rum, Caramel, Roasted Coffee, Sugar Cane, Cream, Sandalwood, Almond, Heliotrope, Cardamom

"Morning Ritual," is a rich coffee scent that is in part inspired by Killian Black Phantom, but with an added emphasis on roasted coffee. 

The robust aroma of freshly brewed coffee and cardamom is noticed immediately, tempered with the sweetness of dark chocolate, sugar cane and caramel. The richness is grounded with notes of warm aged rum and sandalwood, with some delicate heliotrope adding a floral nuance.

This scent is done in their “Explorer Series,” a format that serves as a way for them to explore new scent ideas that don’t necessarily fit into the overall themes of Alberta or the outdoors.

About Their Splash

• Alcohol free witch hazel and aloe vera based splash
• Organic Jojoba oil and glycerine help the skin retain moisture (emollient).
• Uses Olivem, which is a water-soluble fat with sebum recovering activities (sebum is the oily, waxy substance produced by your body’s sebaceous glands). Olivem has strong emolliency and lubricant properties that offers a distinctive skin smoothness and long-term moisturizing effects.
• DL-Panthenol, or Vitamin B5 is used to rehydrate dry, damaged skin
• Hydrolyzed Oat Protein* and silk peptides enhance the moisturizing properties of their splash and imparts a velvet-like smoothness after drying.
• Allantoin is widely used in cosmetic, dermatological and pharmaceutical formulations for its soothing and anti-irritating properties. Allantoin stimulates healthy, normal tissue formation even at low concentrations.
• Grapefruit Seed Extract and Vitamin E are antioxidants that extend the life of our splash, but also have beneficial moisturizing properties.
• White Willow Bark is an astringent.
• All of their fragrance oils are paraben and phthalate free.
• As this is a water based product, they must use preservative to keep their aftershave splash free from bacteria and mould.

*The manufacturer states that the product is gluten free however because it is made from the proprietary hydrolysis of oats, there may be traces of gluten remaining. The manufacturer has tested several lots and all contained less than 20ppm gluten.
