FdR-Pate
WestMan ist eine relativ neue, kleine Marke aus Portugal die von Tiago Ende 2021 lanciert wurde. In kurzer Zeit konnten sie auch schon in den USA Fuss fassen und sind auch bei verschiedenen Retailern in Europa erhältlich, beispielsweise Gifts&Care oder Soul Objects.
Einen direkten Onlineshop gibt es (Stand Mai 2022) nicht.
All of our scents are blended in-house through a process of trial and error. We start with an idea for combining two or three notes together and go from there.
The perception of an aroma is susceptible to our emotional disposition on any given day, so we need to compare several of our experiments through a somewhat long period of time, until we are satisfied with a fragrance.
We try and use natural extracts when possible and complement with synthetic oils whenever necessary. The natural extracts are produced in and sourced from different countries. The fragrance oils we use are all manufactured in Grasse, France.
Düfte:
Die Düfte bestehen aus ätherischen Ölen sowie aus synthetischen Parfümölen und werden selber angemischt und nicht fertig eingekauft.
Red Roses, Passion Fruit, Passion Flower, Musk, Cedar, Oud
Sweet and Floral fragrance.
Rose and Passion Fruit notes are strong and cheerful. Musk is ever present, although not as strong and familiar as the other notes. One can find hints of green from the Passion Flower. Oud and Cedar provide support and show themselves at times.
Literal translation of Alma is “Soul”. The word Alma is believed to derive from the Latin word “Animu”, or that which gives life. Created to enspirit your shave.
Marjoram, Oakmoss, Juniper, Patchouli, Vetiver, Pepper, Lavender and Bergamot
Mossy wood fragrance with earthy and sweet undertones.
We started by emphasizing the Oakmoss note whilst working in a more traditional fougère accord and Gerês was born. This fragrance does not intend to replicate nature. It is an abstract homage to the Gerês Mountains with a refined and glamorous character.
Holly, oak, birch, juniper and pine mountainous forests meet waterfalls that spread out into reservoirs. Breathtaking landscapes are home to numerous wildlife species. Remote granite hamlets are harmoniously integrated with nature. The residents preserve ancient values and traditions going back for millennia.
Lime, Bergamot, Neroli, Violet, Pepper, Frankincense, Cardamomo, Ambar, Sandalwood
Classic with a twist.
Bright citrus opening with a distinct Lime note and nuances of Bergamot, Neroli and Violet. Spicy notes of Cardamomo, Pepper and Frankincense are revealed as you lather. Ambar and Sandalwood tie everything together and take centre stage in the dry down of the aftershave.
Ribalta translates do “Limelight” in English. The experience is a blast of Lime with progressive dimming into a darker and more complex composition, hence the name.

ADAMASTOR
Rhubarb, Melon, Sea Salt, Cut Grass, Damp Earth, Vetiver
Robust aquatic fragrance.
Slightly sweet and green notes of rhubarb, melon and cut grass. Realistic sea salt note throughout the entire shave. Dry down of Damp Earth and Vetiver. Off the tub, you will get the salty note the most with some green and sweet undertones.
Adamastor is a figure of mythological inspiration brought to life in the epic poem “The Lusiads” as a representation of the scourge of the first Portuguese sailors who attempted to circumnavigate Africa.

UTOPIA
Pipe Tobacco, Oud, Vanilla, Cedar, Vetiver, Benzoin
Powerful woody fragrance.
All notes have medium to low volatility, resulting in a dense linear fragrance. Tobacco and Benzoin are prominent. Cedar and Vetiver provide a woody background, which Oud compliments with an ambery vibe. Vanilla brings just enough sweetness to harmonize everything and soften what could be an overpowering opening.
This is a warm and unique aroma. Gentlemanly, dark and mysterious.
In einem zweiten Beitrag werde ich noch meine eigene Einschätzung der Düfte sowie der Seifenbasis wiedergeben. Das Aftershave habe ich nicht getestet, da ich Pflegeprodukte ohne Alkohol bevorzuge.Powerful woody fragrance.
