NO. 4206 Fragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles
NO. 4206 is a distinguished Aromatic Fougere fragrance for men and women. While this fragrance is certainly masculine leaning, we feel it has a more gender fluid personality that can be enjoyed by everyone. It transports you back to yesteryear with a nostalgic visit to the barshop and into an era when a weekly visit to a favoured barber was virtually ritualistic.
From the moment the door opened you were embraced with clean, fresh masculine aromas and a lifetime of memories. Warm soapy lather met a refreshing blend of citrus cologne and sharp aromatic herbs, all softened and rounded with polished wood, hot towels and convivial conversation.
Timeless, discerning, multifaceted. Wonderfully suave and sophisticated.

Scent Profile
The barbershop door swings open to an invigorating wave of fresh, cool air and crisp citrus steam. Basil’s green aromatics and herbal clarity balance the warm, inviting spice of Black Pepper. This refined and precise introduction feels sparkling clean, instantly energising, like the first splash of aftershave on freshly shaved skin.
A sophisticated aromatic core unfolds into a fusion of green herbs and soft florals. A smooth Lavender accord melds into the fresh complexity of Geranium and Rosemary, echoing traditional Fougère structures. Gentle, spicy nuances of Carnation warm the heartspace and bring a vintage air and the quiet rhythm, precision and ease of tradition.
The dry, structural notes of Cedarwood evoke polished wood, worn leather chairs and elegant vintage cabinetry. While soft, glowing notes of Amber settle the fragrance into a polished, comforting foundation of dark woods, earthy green Moss and musky skin like closeness. The soft, clean tones of Coumarin are reminiscent of a light dusting of talcum powder and bring freshness to the dry down. The empty chair radiates the energy of a precise ritual completed with care and attention to detail.
Choose NO. 4206 for its classic Fougere structure and clean, confident aura. Combining bright citrus, aromatic spice, green herbal and Lavender freshness, and a soft musky, mossy and woody foundation. Perfectly designed for those who like their scents traditional, refined and effortlessly polished.

In some cases these are very high, because all components are relatively benign. These amounts are not necessarily recommendations of how much to use in your recipe. They may smell too strong or make the item prohibitively expensive to produce.
