BBS Soap Edition Blue Mediterranean Shaving Soap
A joint operation between two Mediterranean artisans. This shaving soap brings BBS Soap's acclaimed Cronos 2.1 tallow base into contact with the Blue Mediterranean fragrance identity — a collaboration that combines Greek formulation expertise with a fragrance profile as expansive and refined as the sea it references.
Fragrance Profile
The Blue Mediterranean opens with an aromatic burst of mint, nutmeg, galbanum, and lavender — clean, sharp, and immediately clarifying. The heart settles into a smooth woody accord of cedarwood, ylang-ylang, and vetiver, imparting depth and warmth. The base resolves into patchouli: earthy, elegant, and long-lasting. Woody Spice classification. A composition that performs as well as it announces itself.
Cronos 2.1 Base
Engineered on BBS Soap's elite Cronos 2.1 tallow base — a sophisticated formulation incorporating kokum butter, cocoa butter, shea butter, mango seed butter, murumuru butter, and duck and ostrich fats alongside core tallow. Fresh organic goat's milk, rose damascena flower water, and aloe barbadensis leaf juice provide additional skin-conditioning depth. Kaolin and bentonite clay lend structural integrity to the lather, while silkworm cocoons and green tea leaf extract deliver targeted skin benefits. The result is a dense, stable, creamy lather with exceptional blade glide and protective cushioning throughout the shave protocol.
Recovery
Post-shave comfort is built into the base itself. Allantoin, tocopherol, aloe, and sweet almond oil support skin recovery during and after the shave. The formulation is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin — delivering deep hydration without irritation.
