Ubrique
Barrister & Mann
Founded in 2013 by self-taught perfumer Will Carius in his Boston apartment, Barrister & Mann has grown into one of wet shaving’s most respected artisan houses. Known for pushing the envelope on both scent design and soap chemistry, the brand pairs original, multi-layered fragrances—often anchored in classic fougère or chypre structure—with cutting-edge bases like Omnibus, prized for its dense, slick lather and post-shave feel. Signature releases such as Seville, Le Grand Chypre, Waves, and seasonal cult favorites like Hallows showcase Carius’s storytelling approach to perfumery. All products are formulated, poured, and packaged in small batches in upstate New York, using responsibly sourced ingredients and cruelty-free practices. Today the line spans shave soaps, bar soaps, aftershave splashes and balms, and extrait-strength colognes, earning consistently high marks from reviewers and a loyal global following.

Scent Description
Ubrique is a smokey fragrance, a scent note Will Carius admits to being partial to having grown up in a house with a wood-burning stove. Named for the Spanish town famous for producing leather, Ubrique is an homage to Spanish Leather and the many perfumes it inspired in the 20th century. Although some of the signature B&M style is present, such as a floral bouquet suffused with geranmium, rosewood, bergamot and vetiver, the main thrust is smokey leather, which tends to crowd out the other accords. Ubrique is a heavy fragrance, which is masculine and rugged, and will likely get you noticed. A daytime scent, well suited for play and the outdoors, which may be assertive for intimate settings or the office.
