Moon Soaps Astoia Aftershave Splash 4oz

Product Overview

Moon Soaps Astoria Aftershave Splash is a 4oz post-shave splash featuring a complex aquatic and woodsy fragrance inspired by the forests, cool coastal air and adventurous spirit of Astoria, Oregon. An aquatic accord provides the backdrop for cypress, fir, oakmoss, balsam, sage, eucalyptus, blue spruce, white birch, mint and sweet osmanthus, creating an evergreen-focused scent with a crisp coastal character.

Created in-house by Moon Soaps' Zachary, Astoria draws inspiration from the Oregon coast and the nostalgic sense of adventure captured in the 1985 film The Goonies, which was filmed in Astoria. The fragrance evokes misty coastal air, crashing waves and evergreen forests surrounding the port city where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean.

Astoria Aftershave Splash also contains a kiss of menthol for added refreshment. Each 4oz amber glass bottle contains Moon Soaps' post-shave formula and should be shaken well before use.

Quick Take

Moon Soaps Astoria Aftershave Splash combines a crisp aquatic accord with an evergreen-heavy blend of cypress, fir, spruce, balsam, oakmoss, eucalyptus, birch and mint. A touch of sweet osmanthus adds contrast, while a kiss of menthol provides additional post-shave refreshment.

Scent Notes

Featured Notes: Cypress, Fir, Oakmoss, Balsam, Sage, Eucalyptus, Blue Spruce, White Birch, Mint, Sweet Osmanthus, Aquatic Accord

Astoria places its aquatic accord beneath a layered collection of forest-inspired notes. Cypress, fir, balsam and blue spruce establish the fragrance's crisp evergreen character, while oakmoss, sage, eucalyptus, white birch and mint reinforce its cool, woodsy profile. Sweet osmanthus provides another dimension against the aquatic and evergreen elements, creating Moon Soaps' interpretation of a Douglas fir forest along the Oregon coast with a cool breeze coming across the water.

The Story Behind Astoria

Astoria takes its name and inspiration from the Oregon port city located where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. Founded in 1811, Astoria is surrounded by the river, sea and forests of the Pacific Northwest and is closely associated with a spirit of exploration and adventure.

Moon Soaps found additional inspiration in one of their childhood favorites, the 1985 film The Goonies, which was filmed in Astoria. After watching the movie again with their eleven-year-old son, the experience brought back memories of growing up in the 1980s. In particular, a scene showing the boys heading out in search of pirate treasure amid misty air, crashing waves, cliffs and evergreen trees captured the atmosphere Moon Soaps wanted for Astoria.

A Word from the Manufacturer

Moon Soaps describes Astoria as a complex aquatic and woodsy fragrance with an evergreen crispness intended to evoke a forest of Douglas fir along the Oregon coast, where a cool, brisk breeze moves across the water. The fragrance was created in-house by Zachary and includes a kiss of menthol for added refreshment.
