Thank you, gentlemen. Nordost is a simple and direct fragrance. It conveys warm, sun-ripened, freshly peeled oranges. While it's advertised as "smoked orange", I do not detect smoke specifically, but rather an orange that's warm. Nordost has some depth despite its simple, singular fragrance. It also lasts a bit longer than citrus typically does. A very enjoyable fragrance that works very well in cooler temperatures.
Thank you. Im not a huge barrister and mann fan but it caught my attention. I enjoy citrus scents and use them year round.
Superb Sunday This soap leaves my skin feeling great. The scent is very nice and ties in well with flowers in the dark beard oil.

I am a fan of Barrister and Mann, but this one is somewhat of a departure from their usually complex and polarizing fragrances. This one is as-advertised. Straight orange, but well-done and natural. I can't imagine a citrus fan taking issue with Nordost. Of course the Excelsior soap base and Deltus splash base are among the most elite performers in the wet shaving realm.
Very picture of excellent products Jason. I sure I will purchase that aftershave in the new year. I have to put up another shelf in the bathroom.
