Return Of The Mean One – Christmas Special Edition – Moisturizing Balm

High in the snowy mountains, the Mean One plots, hating Christmas with all his icy heart. But this year, he’s back with something unexpected—an irresistible scent. Introducing “Return of the Mean One,” the 2024 Christmas special edition. Building on the 2022 favourite, this improved version is closer to the original scent Angels’ Share by Kilian and even more enchanting. The top note of Cognac hits first, rich and potent, much like the spirit that fuels the Mean One’s grumbling. It’s a bold introduction, setting the stage with a dark warmth that dares you to resist its pull. Then come the heart notes—a festive blend of Cinnamon, Tonka Bean, Oak, and a hint of Hedione. The spices swirl like the smell of holiday kitchens, the woodiness evokes the snap of a winter forest, and all of it hints at something… almost nostalgic, though the Mean One would never admit it. At the base, Vanilla and Praline settle in, offering a soft sweetness that’s impossible to ignore. Paired with the smooth, creamy depth of Sandalwood and a dash of playful Candied Almond, these final notes linger in the air long after your shave is over—much like the holiday spirit that refuses to fade, no matter how hard the Mean One tries. Crafted with our luxurious CORTEX soap base, known for its rich, creamy lather and ultra-smooth glide, “Return of the Mean One” makes every shave a rebellious holiday ritual. Even the grumpiest of hearts can’t help but be drawn in by its charm.

This Christmas, let the Mean One return—not to spoil your holiday spirit, but to make your grooming routine a little brighter. With a scent so good, even a holiday hater might learn to love Christmas, just a little.
