Performance Profile

Matcha is made with Ariana & Evans' Ultima shaving soap formulation. This beef tallow-based formula combines shea, kokum, cocoa, sal, cupuacu, and mango butters with avocado, palm fruit, jojoba, and olive oils. The formula also includes emu oil, Agave Americana leaf extract, hyaluronic acid, and silk amino acid and is designed for building a rich, hydrated lather for traditional wet shaving.

A Word from the Manufacturer

Matcha draws inspiration from walking through Kyoto's tea houses and Tokyo's hidden matcha bars, where the measuring, pouring, and whisking involved in preparing matcha can become a form of meditation. The fragrance was created to capture not only the aroma of matcha, but also the sense of ritual and presence surrounding Japanese tea culture.

The scent is Ariana & Evans' personal interpretation of Japanese matcha, influenced by a daily appreciation for matcha and a preference for enjoying it in latte form. Bergamot provides a fresh citrus opening before green tea matcha and steamed almond milk establish the creamy, distinctive heart of the fragrance.

Virginian cedarwood and hinoki cypress create an aromatic woody foundation, complemented by tonka bean, clary sage, bay leaf, and galbanum. The result balances green tea and creamy warmth with fresh citrus, woods, and aromatic botanicals.

The shaving soap is presented in a glass jar with an aluminum lid.

Directions for Use

Load a damp shaving brush directly from the soap, then work the loaded brush in a shaving bowl or directly on the face. Gradually add small amounts of water while building the lather until a rich, hydrated consistency is achieved. Apply evenly to the beard area and shave as usual. Allow the soap to dry before replacing the lid.

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Steven ★★★★★

The scent of green tea matcha is perfectly balanced—not too sweet, just a clean, calming aroma that makes my morning shave feel like a ritual. The soap itself loads easily onto the brush and whips up a thick, cushiony lather that leaves my skin feeling soft after rinsing.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The lather from this soap is incredibly thick and slick, providing a really comfortable shave. The matcha scent is subtle and calming, exactly what I was hoping for with a Japanese-inspired tea fragrance. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized after I rinse.

Andrew ★★★★★

I was a bit worried the green tea scent would be too faint, but it actually has a nice, earthy presence that lingers just right. The lather feels incredibly dense and cushioning on my face, and my skin feels hydrated long after the shave is done.
