We are delighted to announce a brand new addition to Geo F Trumper’s popular Eucris Range.
The same glycerin based formula as their existing shaving soaps combined with the scent of the best selling Eucris Eau de Toilette with notes of sandalwood, musk, jasmine, muguet, cumin, coriander and blackcurrant.
Presented in a special edition black wooden shaving bowl, also available singularly as an 80g shaving soap refill.
One of the most prolific You Tube bloggers of all time, “Mantic” has created a video review of Coates Limited Edition Shaving Cream. Mantic, or Mark as we know him, purchased the product at full retail price and has independently produced this short film.
We are delighted to see that Mark likes it despite attacking it with a spoon and applying his shaving cream using a shaving brush in a swirling motion.
He has now consigned himself to a lifetimes free supply of Coates shaving products…

Tea tree oil has been used for many years in both traditional and alternative medicine, due to its natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties and as it is now widely used in skincare products, it seemed a natural progression to include tea tree oil in our new shaving products.
This high quality shaving cream will ensure a smooth shave, as the natural essential oil will help calm the newly shaved skin and is also the ideal solution to reduce any post-shave redness. Tea Tree oil is capable of penetrating the lower layers of the skin with its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing qualities, to encourage the formation of new tissue, following the shave.

We have just had a delivery of Proraso shaving products.
Established in Italy in 1926, Proraso shaving products have provided the pleasure of a smooth comfortable shave for many years.
Formulated with a traditional combination of Eucalyptus Oil, Menthol and Glycerin, the cream gives a rich, creamy lather, especially when used with a shaving brush, to soften even the heaviest beard.
The perfect product for shaving with whilst on a hot summer morning!
The Gentleman’s Shop is delighted to announce that it acquired the Coate’s company in May 2010. As a result of this we have inherited a selection of unique hand made shaving and hair brushes and are currently re-introducing Coate’s shaving cream.
James Coate established his first brush works in London in 1847 relocating in 1883, opening factories in Axminster, Devon and Chard, Somerset. In 1941 another shaving brush manufacturer, A Simpson lost their London factory, as a result of enemy bombing and in the spirit of wartime co-operation shared Coate’s production facilities in Somerset. This partnership proved so successful that the two companies continued to work under this arrangement until production ceased in1990, as a result of a period of financial difficulty.
The companies were rescued by friends David Carter and Francis Woodhouse who continued the manufacture of Simpson’s shaving brushes using the traditional handmade techniques and also Coate’s brand shaving creams. In 2008 the Simpson shaving brush part of the business was sold to another UK manufacturer, who continue to ensure the high standards of production.
Going forward, it is our mission to ensure the future of Coate’s as a leading manufacturer of high quality shaving products. We have today launched the very first Coate’s website, www.coates1847.com.
Forget the multi bladed razors available at supermarkets, guys are buying these traditional safety razors! At only £15.00 for 100 blades that’s nearly 2 years shaving, none of this 76p a week nonsense…
To encourage sales we have reduced the price of all Parker Safety razors by a staggering 20% down from £25.00 to £20.00. This means that ours are amongst the cheapest available on the Internet.
This safety razor from Parker brings a futuristic design to traditional safety razor shaving.
The black finish gives it a more contemporary feel and the patterned 3½ inch (9cm) long handle gives very good grip. The weight of the razor is divided uniformly throughout, making it incredibly balanced and well suited to shaving with even gentle strokes.
Features the distinctive Parker ‘butterfly’ opening mechanism whereby the handle is twisted to open the head which is undoubtedly the simplest and safest way to insert safety razor blades.

After much disruption to their production schedule caused by a shortage of essential oils I’m delighted to announce that we now have a full range of Castle Forbes shaving creams back in stock!
Here is a little about the company. In 1996 the former dairy beside Castle Forbes was converted into the world’s smallest perfumery to accommodate Jinny Forbes’ passion for scents and essential oils which she uses to complement her home.
With the help of family friend and perfumer Andrew French, and using only the finest natural oils in the classical manner of “Haute Parfumerie”, the Castle Forbes Collection has evolved into an exclusive range of top-quality fragrances.
Now it includes eau de toilettes, shaving creams, pre- and after-shaves for men. Firm favourites here at The Gentleman’s Shop.
We have a shop full of fantastic fragrances but a personal favourite of mine is the Archipelago Botanicals Boticario de Havana Personal Fragrance.
A truly intoxicating fragrance: tobacco flower, orange blossom, patchouli and honeysuckle with clean and citrusy top notes of bergamot. Presented in a 50ml glass atomiser bottle.
Boticario de Havana Personal Fragrance
In the 1940′s the world flocked to Havana; they came for the nightlife, but left with the secrets of the “boticarias” – the small apothecaries that dotted the side streets and specialized in natural skin care remedies made from local plant materials. Coffee bean, tobacco flower and pure essences and extracts of orange, sugar cane and sweet pineapple were used to promote beautiful, soft and healthy looking skin. Today we know these ingredients contain the alpha hydroxy acids, antioxidants and other agents that actively moisturize, hydrate and reduce redness associated with dry, rough skin. Enjoy the daily rituals of the Boticario-recreated exclusively by Archipelago.
