Tabac Original Shaving Cream

The Tabac Original accord in tube cream format — quicker to load than the hard soap, with a softer formulation that produces dense, cushioning lather with minimal effort. The cream extends the same classic protocol to operatives who prefer face or bowl lathering without the preparation time of a traditional puck. The characteristic Tabac Original fragrance is present throughout the shave.

Fragrance Profile

The signature Tabac Original accord — unchanged since 1959. Fresh bergamot and lemon open with a clean, citrus clarity. Lavender and warm woody depth define the heart. The base resolves into sandalwood, vetiver, amber, and musk, anchored by coumarin — the hay-like, tobacco-warm note that defines the Tabac identity. An Oriental Fougère of the highest classical order.

The Brand: Tabac

Tabac Original was introduced in 1959 by Mäurer & Wirtz, a German fragrance house with roots in Stolberg dating to 1836. The fragrance became one of the most recognisable masculine scents in Northern Europe — the German equivalent of Old Spice in the United States or Proraso in Italy. The shaving range extends the Tabac Original accord across every stage of the protocol, maintaining olfactory continuity from lather to post-shave. Each product is made in Germany to the same standard established at launch. An uncompromising traditional asset.
