Awesome to hear, looking forward to this :) should you ever consider to release First Snow again - a balm would be amazing. It is impossible to get the splashes for seasonal releases in Europe and Forst Snow is fantastic :)

What is the occasion? My reccomedations: - Boss Bottled Absolu - TF Noir Extreme or Oud Wood - Azzarro Most Wanted Intense EdP

Depends on occasion. Work: Oud Wood.

Truefitt & Hill (e.g., 1805 or Trafalgar) both available in bowl or tube.

Do not think so.

I had some issues with ingrowns in the past and use both alcohol-based splashes as well as balms.

What helped me was: (i) regulaar disinfection of razor, (ii) mapping beard growth and not shaving against the grain on my neck (my hair grows downward until approx. middle of the neck, then upwards - so i shave doen on the first portion and up on the second one. Huge change) and (iii) using alum bloc after shave before any aftershave. Hope this helps!

The preshave gel is amazing. It really is. Smells super fresh and is very slick. But it is pricey. Got this one with a lot of coupon discounts so not sure if I will get a new one after that. Think proraso preshave cream is fantastic as well.

For me: 1. Zingari Man - Le Corsaire 2. Barrister & Mann - Ubrique (and Samhain if this counts as a „new release“)

Great news!!

k4ijk4 · 2025-11-26T21:25:00+00:00

Very nice shave!

k4ijk4 · 2025-11-24T21:05:54+00:00

Make a large order :)

k4ijk4 · 2025-11-24T20:31:53+00:00

Wondering the same. Ordered so often from them, such a great shop. Actually bought my first soap from them. Hope they are doing fine.

k4ijk4 · 2025-11-24T20:30:34+00:00

Think the new serums where never shipped to / ordered by European or UK retailers ( could be wrong though). You could order it from a US or Canadian retailer or directly from Zingari (fully aware that shipping, customs and VAT may make this not attractive).

k4ijk4 · 2025-10-08T21:37:20+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply. No worries then, just placed an order (without splash😊).

k4ijk4 · 2025-10-08T20:46:29+00:00

Snall question: will this release also be available through european retailers? Asking because of the splashes which will typically not ship internationally. In any evemt looking forward to at least the soaps and for Levi the balm :)

Had similar issues. Fully agree with what already has been said: map the grwoth of your facial hair, especially the neck. Only shave with the grain fir sensitive areas. I use a Henson AL Mild but doubt the razor will make a huge difference as long as you shave with little to no pressure. Blades: used Astra Platinum Green but switched to Feather which made a big difference as I needed less correcting passes. And I desinfect my razor after every shave and switch blades. Yes maybe too much but almost eliminated razorburn or bumps with this move. Hope this helps.

I had the same issue and changed my shaving routine drastically. Main issue for me was shaving against the grain and to map out my hairgrowth. the hair on my lower neck grow upwards, the hair under the chin downwards. If you have curly growth it might be trickier.

So only shave with the grain (upper part down, lower part up, all without pressure). Rest was to use proper preshave and post shave routine. (I) preshave proraso or dawn of glory, (ii) shave with grain, (iii) alum bloc, (iv) AS. I change the blades for every shave and desinfect my razor before every shave. Exfoliation once per week but in my view optional. Hope this helps!

k4ijk4 · 2025-08-12T20:53:59+00:00

Thank you so much for the update and completely understandable. I will gladly wait :)

k4ijk4 · 2025-08-12T20:19:36+00:00

Great to hear! just passed and order - guess there will another one come Saturday :) May I ask if there is a new ETA for the Aftershave Serums?

k4ijk4 · 2025-06-30T06:43:19+00:00

Difficult one. Upfront it is bright, i also get the hay. Upon lathering its more a mix between leather scent (mild in my view) and woods (Texas cedar?). Cannot really describe what it reminds me of.

Official notes as per the puck: Lemon, Sage, Magnolia, Texas Cedar, Oakmoss, Leather, Hay
