The scent-scape of a dream inhabited by mythical beasts and beings. Ancient knowledge and magik, romance, a first kiss on a summer night long ago. Esoteria, alchemy and sensuality adrift on a breeze. Etta James on a car radio, a drive-in theater, staring at a night full of shooting stars from the beach where the warm waves lap like liquid tongues at your toes. This is Al Fin.

The Original Epic

Al Fin is not only the name of this Phoenix Shaving Classic, but also the exact words I shouted out after months of dedicated trial and error upon fruition. For those not familiar with the Spanish language, Al Fin translates in English to something like "At Last".

I had been working at this scent sometime and had really begun exploring the world of perfuming only a few months before, but with a hunger. I bought every book I could find on the subject and devoured it. At the same time, everyday I was scent blending these strange and exotic scents, getting closer to...something. In all honesty, I really didn't create Al Fin, Al Fin created Al Fin, if that makes sense.

Like the muse patiently waiting for her curtain call at the end of a pen, Al Fin was near, but always out of grasp. This was more due to my inexperience than her willingness to reveal herself as she would eventually. Al Fin is the product of pure passion and a desire to create, I hope she serves you in a similar fashion.

Though perfect anytime of year, Al Fin holds a special place in my heart when it comes to sensual Summer Scents.
