Rex Supply Co. | 1955 Old World Tallow Shaving Soap

SKU: RSC-55T

Description

Rex Supply Co. Old World Tallow Shaving Soap is a love letter to the traditional soaps men have used for centuries. Before becoming preoccupied with man buns and vegan ingredients, soap made from animal fat provided clean comfortable hydration to men. The same men whose daily sacrifice built unprecedented economic growth in the 50’s and lead to a Golden Age of American Manufacturing we still celebrate today.

Honest, hard-working men that were too busy providing for their country and families to debate about the characteristics of masculinity.. they just were.

1955, the first offering from Rex Supply co. is a subtle, confident scent. Inspired by the most popular colognes from the 1950’s, with floral notes of Hyacinth & Gardenia woodsy notes of Vetiver & Sandalwood. The complex 1955 aroma is unlike anything available today, nothing musky, no headache inducing smack, and nothing exotic about this classic American construction. 

This Tallow Soap offers the most clean, comfortable, hydrating lather on the market today. Old World Tallow provides a rich cushion and leaves you lightly fragranced with the best post-shave feel you’ve ever experienced. 

Scent Notes:  Hyacinth, Gardenia, Vetiver, Sandalwood

Ingredients: Tallow, Stearic acid, water, coconut oil, potassium hydroxide, glycerin, shea butter, fragrance, sodium hydroxide  

4oz

    1955 is very good!

    As Matt promised, this is a great tallow throwback. I've been using it consistantly since I received it a few weeks ago. Performance it the tops, post shave is great, and while it's got a strong scent, it doesn't conflict with aftershaves at all...kind of fades to the background in a classy, subtle way. Picture a 1950's gentleman on the streets of NYC, in a London Fog coat, period hat, strolling down the avenue....Don Draper-ish...classy.

    Nice scent - needs matching aftershave

    At the time of this review (1/3/23), there is no matching aftershave. Overall, this is a very nice floral scent - you can really smell the gardenia. The scent strength is moderate and not overpowering. The soap lathers nicely and gives a great post shave feel. If you love this scent, I would recommend getting an unscented aftershave splash or balm until the matching set is released. I tried pairing this with a few different aftershaves from different artisans. They all overpowered the soap scent and all you could smell is the aftershave. Knowing that RE will eventually come out with a matching AS, I would recommend everyone pick this up. You will not be disappointed.

    1955 a manly scented soap.

    Having the scent of an old school barber shop straight razor shave. Makes a great lather with minimal water.
