Ritual
Beyond the firelight, something stirs.
Deep within a valley of jagged peaks and ancient evergreens, the last light of day casts an amber glow across the wilderness. Shadows gather beneath the trees. At the forest’s edge, a horned figure emerges—its gaze unwavering, its presence both unsettling and strangely inviting. It seems to belong to a time before these mountains had names.
This is the world of Ritual: dark woods, quiet places, and the feeling that something unseen has drawn closer. Rich, brooding, and quietly seductive, the fragrance invites you to linger at the threshold.
Nutmeg and saffron open with a slow, spicy warmth, tempered by aromatic lavender. At the heart, agarwood—oud—reveals its complex character: deep woods, resinous richness, and a haunting sweetness. Earthy patchouli and musk anchor the fragrance, leaving a warm, lingering presence.
As the light fades behind the peaks, the figure holds its watch. For a moment, the world feels still, and your familiar routine takes on a stranger, more captivating shape.
Ritual turns your daily shave into a moment to savor.

”This is a collaboration between HAGS and The Shave Supply. We were both inspired to create a unique woody scent with a similar core of the perfume by Initio Parfums Prives’ Oud for Greatness. To be clear, this is not a dupe fragrance and is unique in itself."

HATHOR X Base Shaving Soap
HATHOR X is the evolved form of our original HATHOR base—rebuilt for higher performance, stronger structure, and uncompromising consistency.
This upgrade delivers a denser, more protective cushion, increased slickness, and markedly improved residual glide, allowing the razor to stay effortless even during extended buffing and precision work. Post-shave, the skin is left deeply comfortable: moisturized, soft, and velvety, with no greasy or tacky residue.
HATHOR X features a more stable and more substantial structure, engineered to handle significantly more water without collapsing. The surface is firmer and grippier than the previous version, making brush loading deliberate and controlled—no overthinking, no wasted product.
This is an upgrade at the same price.
Same soul. Sharper edge.
Why “Hathor” — Reforged
Named after the Egyptian goddess of joy, nourishment, and power, HATHOR X reflects a refined balance between care and dominance. Where the original focused on gentleness, HATHOR X adds authority—stronger structure, heavier presence, and greater control—without sacrificing comfort.
The process
HATHOR X is produced using a controlled hot-process method, designed to create a tighter, more resilient soap matrix. This allows the base to absorb more water while maintaining density, structure, and stability throughout the shave.
The result is a lather that stays locked-in from first pass to final rinse.
Key components & performance role
Donkey Milk
Contributes to a comfortable, hydrated post-shave feel and overall skin balance.
Rice Bran Oil (Oryza Sativa)
Enhances glide while maintaining a clean, lightweight skin feel.
Mango Seed Butter
Reinforces lather body and structure, supporting a creamy, dense texture.
Murumuru Seed Butter
Rich in fatty acids that help maintain skin softness and elasticity.
Jojoba Seed Oil
Skin-compatible wax esters that support a calm, conditioned finish.
Kaolin Clay
Adds subtle cushion and improved razor feedback without drying the skin.
What you’ll experience
• Denser, more protective cushioning
• Enhanced slickness with superior residual glide
• A lather that accepts more water without breaking
• Firmer surface for easier, more controlled loading
• A clean, velvety post-shave feel with lasting comfort
Directions
HATHOR X has a firmer croap texture. Do not bloom. Load the brush directly from the surface for approximately 10–15 seconds. Build lather in a bowl or on the face, adding water gradually. The base is highly water-tolerant and performs best when fully hydrated, producing a dense, creamy, heavy lather.
