Seaforth! Black Watch Shaving Soap

Black Watch is a special chapter in the Seaforth story.  Seaforth was a drugstore staple by the 1950’s.  But it wasn’t perceived as a luxury product by high-end retailers.  The solution was Black Watch: a distinguished scent with its own image, branding and product line.  Our re-imagination takes the sophistication of Black Watch and refines it for modern wear - day or night.  

To celebrate the unique history of Black Watch we are releasing its own shaving soap base: Highland.  Highland is rich in skin-loving oleic acid with a uniquely smooth and creamy lather.  The soft soap lathers easily with exceptional slickness and post-shave feel.  

The scent for Black Watch was created by Shawn Maher of Chatillon Lux and Maher Olfactive. 

Perfumer’s Note: In an accord that was created to stand the test of time, Black Watch is classic and time-tested. Not too rugged, but not too refined. It is a scent that you wear like you would your favorite pair of leather shoes, able to dress it up or down however you wish. The tea-like citrus of bergamot gives way to a fruity jasmine and plum middle note, which then slowly welcomes in a subtle base of leather, oakmoss, incense and sandalwood. It's a classic scent that never feels dated but never goes out of style.

Scent notes include: Bergamot, Jasmine, Plum, Leather, Oakmoss, Incense, and Sandalwood.

Ingredients: Stearic Acid, Water, Beef Tallow, Glycerin, Potassium Hydroxide, Kokum Butter, Fragrance, Castor Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Lactate, Xanthan Gum, Jojoba Oil, Murumuru Butter, Shea Butter

Excellent soap base and scent

This new base is excellent in all the aspects, it takes much more water than the previous base, it has some similarities with Omnibus base from Barrister and Mann, and is also a little bit softer than previous base but still quite firm. This scent is just phenomenal, what a scent, I’m enjoying this soap very much

Agree with Aaron

Because I really liked Seaforth Heather, I bought this when it was introduced. As Aaron noted, the formula is different. It is thick and "sticky" and does not lather well. The scent is good and long lasting. I tried both bowl and face lathering and got mostly just thick soap residual on my brush, not a peaked lather. It does produce coverage for an adequate shave. I would not buy Black Watch again, but will try other Seaforth scents with the old formula.

Not a good blind buy, sorry to say

The scent is well done, but it isn't for me and it is strong like all the other Seaforth! scents. It's not going to be one of those things you can simply tolerate if you don't love it, that's why I wrote the title that I did. Further, it lasts forever. I could easily smell it 16 hrs later! The new soap base is very soft unlike the old base, you will have to decide if that matters to you. This new base is a high butter formula, very dense and hard to rinse off. I consider it too much of a compromise for the performance boost they were going after hence the one star off. I have other soaps with similar performance that have balanced this better, but at least the performance is there. I am not going to knock them for the strong scent as that is subjective.
