Captain Fawcett’s collaboration with Sid Sottung has produced a truly superlative Eau De Parfum evoking the classic masculine aromas of New York’s old school Italian barber shops.
Inspired by hair tonics, aftershaves and grease-based pomades, mingled with tobacco smoke and work weary, honest sweat in the days of Sid’s Brooklyn apprenticeship.
Barberism® captures the essence of the man’s man, a classically influenced yet refreshing modern fragrance with soaring top notes of Lime & Orange, spiked by provocative Rose & Galbanum rising from an earthy Cedarwood, Patchouli & Musk base.
Created for your pleasure. Carry on.

Description
THE STORY OF BARBERISM®
Sid Sottung was raised in New York City, apprenticed to a traditional Italian Barbers in Brooklyn before working with Vidal Sassoon in downtown Manhattan.
Barberism®’s influences reflect Sid’s memories of his beloved father, Ronald, who worked on Hellcats at the Grumman Airplane factory on Long Island, New York.
The pin-up girl represents the sweethearts, once emblazoned on American aircraft doomed never to return from their fateful missions. There is, too, a whisper of Prohibition and speakeasies run by sharp suited mobsters dressed to kill.
