Blazing Saddles, our ultimate cowboy scent (leather, gunpowder, sandalwood, and sagebrush), is hands down our most popular scent. Why? It's a surprisingly deep and complex arrangement of olfactory delights, which evoke a lone cowboy walking into town, carrying his saddle, smelling of a recent gunfight. It's the scent of the...

We choose to honor Calamity Jane, one of the most badass frontierswomen in the Wild West.

IT'S BACK: The Cursed Cowboy, our famed and treasured campfire and clove limited edition seasonal spicy soap, has materialized on this mortal plane months before its typical season, when the leaves turn and a whisper of a chill blows through your bones. These are strange times, and strange times call...

I talk a big game over here in the blog, but you know who makes this whole machine go? It's my husband and business partner (and best friend), Russell Vincent. In 2018, we sold 11,600ish bars of handmade soap. In 2019, we sold more than 43,000 bars, most of which...
