Bosbouer is a fragrance that has light and fresh woody notes, it's slightly sweet and fresh, but not 'in-your-face-fresh', it is subtle and gentle, much like a mountain stream running through a forest in the Mpumalanga province where forestry is a thriving industry. The top notes are Bergamot, Blackcurrant, Star Anise and Pepper, middle Galanga, Ginger, Cinnamon and Lavender, base notes are Vanilla, Cedarwood, Myrrh and Sandalwood. This one is gaining popularity quicker than most other fragrances, so it may be a good one for you to check out!

Solid colognes are such a brilliant concept, the small tin can literally go anywhere and the cologne can be applied very discreetly. Slide open the tin and gently rub your thumb over the waxy goodness, your body heat will convert the cologne from its solid state to a softer state which is then picked up on the thumb. With the fragrant balm on your thumb, you can now then rub it between your thumb and index finger and apply to any or all pulse points, your neck, behind ears, your wrists and inside of elbows being the most popular ones that are easiest to reach and apply to.   

This product is made right here in South Africa using only natural main ingredients sourced from small scale farmers and businesses. Although the main purpose of a solid cologne is to project a fragrance profile, we have not skimped on formulating the best carrier for the fragrance. We have used natural beeswax to control the consistency and way it behaves when heated up under your thumb, and when carried in your pocket. Fragrance and essential oils can be quite harsh on your skin when applied in a concentrated form, and that is why we have used Baobab and Marula oils to supplement the formulation. Baobab acts as an antioxidant, It protects the skin from free radical damage that can cause aging, it is also anti-inflammatory and boasts a  high quantity of omega fatty acids that can help get rid of dry and itchy skin. It has excellent moisturizing benefits, and promotes active wound healing. Marula oil doesn't clog pores because it is non-comedogenic, its antioxidant properties help it to protect and heal the skin and it has anti-aging properties. In addition to hydrating skin, it can also prevent and soothe redness because of its anti-inflammatory properties

The product has no colorants in it, texture and color (off white to golden yellow) is determined by the ingredients and oils used in the specific balm. 

The tin contains around 15 ml of product and weighs between 20 and 30 grams.

Warm and "Rum"-like

These colognes are awesome!
So far, this scent is my favourite (I also love "Beach Bum" and "Last One Standing").

This scent is warm and spicy, but also fresh with a proper "cologne" type of scent (without being "perfumy").

To me it's a very masculine and welcoming scent at the same time, it's on the spicy side of the spectrum, but not so much where that's the only scent you get, there's also strong sweet and woody undertones, and is very "rum"-like.

(Compared to "Reijger" which has a very strong spicy scent, this is much less spicy and more well rounded to my taste).
