Atomic Pumpkin
Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements
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
Atomic Pumpkin is a potent and rapturous next-level Bay Rum that channels the Halloween spirit with Pumpkin Seed Oil and Elemi Resin, infusing it with the organic loaminess of a freshly scooped Jack-O-Lantern. Moro Blood Orange mellows and brightens its vegetal undertones, while an intense spice blend of Ginger, Cinnamon, and nutmeg, flashes the sweet, zesty calling card of a rich Bay Rum. Playful and original, Atomic Pumpkin stands out on the crowded stage of seasonal fall scents, and has become a staple within the wet shaving community. The perfect companion for a fall holiday get together or an easygoing day with family and friends.

Base Description
Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements’ flagship CK-6 soap base is a vegan formula that founder Douglas Smythe calls the “Mystical Trifecta of Slick.” It blends three Amazonian butters—bacuri, cupuaçu, and murumuru—with shea butter, cocoa butter, jojoba oil, and glycerin to create a textured lather reminiscent of dense cottage cheese. The result is a voluminous, high-density lather with exceptional moisturization properities that offers excellent cushion, above-average slickness, and rock-solid stability.
