- John Muir, for whom the famed national park "Muir Woods" is named, was a driven man. He loved nature so much that he crusaded for decades to preserve it, founding the Sierra Club and establishing national parks at Yosemite & Sequoia National Forest, which inspired the conservation of other natural wonders. He was so outspoken and persuasive that no less than Ansel Adams, perhaps the greatest nature photographer of the 20th Century, regarded him as a direct influence and inspiration for his work.
- In keeping with Muir's love of the forests, we've attempted to capture the crepuscular gloom of the woods at dusk, all purples and greens and blues. Blackberry seemed a perfect choice to blend with the jammy resin of balsam fir, while oakmoss and vetiver lace the undergrowth, imparting wood. The scent of damp air, so common in the Pacific Northwest where Muir made his home, wends its way through the fragrance, leaving a hauntingly gossamer shimmer in its wake.
- Mûir(e) Wood is a tribute to one of our great forefathers in a strikingly unconventional manner, a memorial to a man who went to live in Nature and only came back to tell us of the wonders he had seen. The Muire Wood scent of this shaving soap features notes of blackberry, wood, balsam fir, and vetiver, creating a fresh, earthy fragrance that is both inviting and invigorating.
- This shaving soap is easy to use and produces a thick, creamy lather that provides excellent cushion and glide for your razor. The soap puck can be easily lathered using a shaving brush and hot water, creating a luxurious lather that helps to soften and hydrate your skin for a smooth and comfortable shave.

- Directions for Use: Wet your shaving brush well, then swirl it around the jar for roughly thirty seconds or until a rich, creamy lather is formed.
