Made by Hand: How We Make Our Solid Cologne

Posted by Andrew Feyen on

There’s no factory line behind this stuff.

Every batch of our solid cologne is made by hand in Byron Bay, in small runs, the way it should be.

It starts on the bench. Raw ingredients laid out, tins stacked, everything measured properly. Nothing rushed. We melt down the base using a double boiler — low and steady heat so the oils keep their integrity. That part matters more than most people realise.

Once everything’s combined, it becomes this smooth, pourable blend. That’s when things move quickly.

We line up the tins, pour each one by hand, and let them set naturally. No shortcuts, no machines doing the work for us. Just a clean process, repeated properly every time.

While the cologne is setting, the boxes are folded and prepped. Simple packaging, nothing excessive. Just what it needs to be.

When it’s all done, every tin has passed through our hands at least a few times — from raw ingredient to finished product.

It’s slower this way. But it’s better.

And you can tell the difference when you use it.
