Scent Profile

Magellan embarks on an aromatic journey inspired by the legendary spice trade of Indonesia. It opens with the invigorating freshness of thyme before revealing the rich warmth of clove and finishing with the smooth, gourmand sweetness of cinnamon. Herbaceous undertones and subtle woody nuances create an elegant fragrance that is warm, adventurous, and unmistakably refined. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Performance Profile

Produced using Martin de Candre's traditional hot-process soap-making method and crafted exclusively from vegetable oils, Magellan effortlessly creates a rich, dense lather that provides exceptional razor glide and luxurious protection throughout every pass. Its highly concentrated formula requires very little product per shave, allowing a single 200g jar to provide well over a year of daily shaving while maintaining its renowned performance. 

A Word from the Artisan

Handcrafted in the Loire Valley of France, every Martin de Candre shaving soap is made using artisanal techniques that have remained virtually unchanged for decades. Each batch is carefully saponified in a cauldron, naturally cured for several months, and delicately fragranced to create one of the finest shaving soaps available anywhere in the world.

Directions for Use

Using a damp shaving brush, load the soap for approximately 20–30 seconds before building lather in a shaving bowl or directly on the face. Add water gradually until a rich, glossy lather forms. After shaving, allow the soap to air dry completely before replacing the lid. For maximum longevity, leave the lid off between shaves and only replace it during travel or storage.
