Shaving soaps

All of Westman shaving products are traditionally handcrafted by Tiago Sousa in his laboratory in Portugal

The Nirvana Soap Base

The Nirvana soap base is nothing but a natural evolution of Westman's original soap base and what we learned from the old formula. The modifications result in greater rentability, improved lather consistency, slickness, as well as a comfortable, skin-loving post-shave feel.

Changes include new ingredients such as broccoli seed oil instead of apricot kernel oil for better absorption by the skin. The inclusion of dimethicone due to its excellent lubricating properties. In addition, the simplification of the formula, which contains fewer saponified fats, allows us to increase the concentration of the really important fats such as kokum butter and mango butter to obtain a denser and shinier lather. Other key ingredients include tallow, lanolin, jojoba oil, avocado oil and many more

COFFEE, INCENSE, NUTMEG, AMBER, VETIVER, CEDAR, SANDALWOOD

At the forefront of this fragrance is the rich essence of coffee, which is both comforting and invigorating. The fragrance is enriched by the depth of incense, nutmeg and vetiver, with a smoky note that gives the composition a mysterious touch. Amber envelops a luxurious and seductive aura, complemented by the woody elegance of cedar and the lingering embrace of sandalwood

Scent Description

DARK LEATHER, SOFT SUEDE, TOBACCO, PLUM, FIREWOOD, PATCHOULI, AMBERGRIS, CASHMERAN, TONKA

This sophisticated and powerful perfume featured Sterling's imposing visage on the label. The composition, a symphony of Dark Leather, Soft Suede, Tobacco, Plum, Firewood, Patchouli, Ambergris, Cashmeran, and Tonka, unfolded like a declaration of Sterling's unshakable will. Its name was '71 Bonanza, a scent that exuded the opulence and authority he desired

Dark Leather and Soft Suede commanded the composition. The undertones of Tobacco and Plum added a touch of decadence. The heart was fueled by the smoky essence of Firewood and the earthy allure of Patchouli. Ambergris and Cashmeran wove through, leaving a trail of irresistible mystique, while Tonka provided a final note of dark sweetness that echoed with the man's insatiable ambition

Scent Description

FIG, SANDALWOOD, CARDAMOM, CARNATION, MYRRH, MUSK, CEDAR

Nirvana features a harmonious blend of Fig and Sandalwood, enriched with a captivating selection of supporting notes. Perfect for gentlemen who appreciate the art of scent and take pride in their grooming ritual. Originally released in June 2022 as a special edition for the facebook group "O Lado Gourmet do Barbear", this fragrance now returns as a new regular collection.

The Fig invokes a sense of natural sweetness and freshness. It was important to make it as close to nature as possible. It does not smell too sweet/ripe or green like a fig leaf. It is more of a happy medium with balanced green and sweet tones. The heart of the fragrance is rich in warm and woody Sandalwood. Then a touch of floral elegance from the Carnation note, the spicy features of Cardamom, the resinous qualities of Myrrh, the subtle animalic facet from Musk and finally, woody and earthy tones of Cedarwood to anchor the scent.

Figs are among the oldest fruits known to man. It is therefore not surprising that they are mentioned in several ancient scriptures. Nonetheless, it is still interesting to see how different religions make more or less important references to Fig (either fruit, leaf or tree). In the Old Testament, Adam and Eve covered their nakedness after eating the forbidden fruit. There is a story in the New Testament where Jesus cursed a barren fig tree. In the Quran, figs are considered one of the six fruits of paradise. But more importantly for our inspiration in choosing the name of this collection, Buddha achieved enlightenment (Nirvana) under a fig tree. Secrets of the world

Scent Description

YUZU, NEROLI, LAVENDER, VANILLA, YLANG-YLANG, SANDALWOOD, PATCHOULI

(Desas)sossego is a Lavender-foward fragrance with the soothing embrace of nature and a an edgy twist. It offers a moment of relaxation from everyday life.

The subtle top notes of zesty Yuzu and sweet Neroli are reminiscent of a gentle breeze on a field of purple blooms. At the heart there is a strong note of Lavender, which makes up about 40% of the entire fragrance, is obtained primarily from natural essential oils with a sliver of synthetic materials to enhance its fragrant properties.

Lavender's timeless appeal is enhanced by a soft and creamy note of Vanilla that enhances the feeling of comfort. Just a dab of Ylang-Ylang acts as an exotic layer of an acute and unfamiliar aroma. Notes of Sandalwood and Patchouli provide a warm and grounding base
