Prospector & Co. - K.C. Atwood Aftershave4 oz.
DETAILS: This crisp, citrusy aftershave splash gets its name from America's citrus pioneer, Kimball Chase Atwood. From humble childhood beginnings as a summer clerk in his father's general store in Maine, Atwood would go on to operate the largest grapefruit grove in the world. A hunting and fishing trip led him to Florida in the 1890s where he saw an opportunity. With the purchase of 265 acres of land to build his 96 miles of grapefruit upon, the rest became history.

Prospector & Co. - Wormwood Absinthium Cream8 oz.
DETAILS: This hand and body cream takes its inspiration from the infamous hallucinogenic plant that both inspired and drove people mad during the mid to late 1800s. The French Impressionists sensationalized its beverage form, depicting cafe patrons in a mindless somber. With this cream form, presented as "a non-hallucinogenic skin hydrant" you can expect the sweet subtle smell of absinthe mixed with marjoram, shea butter and cucumber extract. Its effects might not inspire you to paint or cut off your ear, but its all-natural hydrating properties will take the stress off your hard-working hands and feet.Available in an 8 oz. and 1 oz. emerald pet bottle with push dispenser.

Prospector & Co. - Burroughs Beard Oil.5 oz.
DETAILS: The woodsy, earthy scent of this beard oil brings together the solitary notes of nature and craftsmanship. The smell of freshly chopped forest woods move into a dusty carpenter's workshop, leaving behind the deep leathered richness of a cobbler's apron. Its very hardy, masculine fragrance works well with the rugged scruff left behind after a lazy summer's week of no shaving to the full-grown winter's beard. In addition to smelling great, the oils also help to moisturize surface skin and condition follicles. Can be used as a beard oil or as an oil based cologne. Great for all skin-types. Available in a 1 oz. mini-flask bottle with orifice reducer and a 0.5 oz. bottle with glass dropper lid.
