Cane
Phoenix Shaving
Founded in 2012 by Douglas Smythe and his partner Frances Towle, Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements has become one of the wet-shaving community’s most recognizable names. The company blends innovative soap and fragrance formulas with playful, science-fiction-inspired themes, pairing eye-catching artwork with engaging back-stories for each release. Beyond soaps and scents, PAA is renowned for its accessories—razors, brushes, scuttles, alum blocks, balms, blades, and even apparel—many of which are prized for both performance and collectability.
Scent Description
PAA fragrances tend to be straightforward and bold, of which Cane is a classic example. The scent is designed for the holidays and meant to evoke images of Christmas candy canes, and in this it is 100% effective. Although, a bit of complexity comes through from the vanilla, rose, and musk, the overwhelming impression is one of pepperminty freshness. So strong is the mint, that it drowns out everything else. Still, there's no denying its holiday bona fides, and will undoubtedly be a crowd pleaser around the yule log with a hot cup of eggnog.
