Voodoo King — Shaving Soap Sample Size
This sample-sized soap carries the full Voodoo king formula in a smaller vessel – perfect for travel or those wishing to experience the ritual before committing to the full altar jar.
The Voodoo King is the living essence of Papa CaYuen, the spirit who binds the House together. His smoke lingers in the rafters, his laughter in the flame, and his scent—dark, resinous, and strange—travels wherever ritual takes place.
At the Apothecary’s bench, his likeness is made manifest. Oils, tallow, and mango butter are tempered by heat and stirred by steady hand until they take the shape of true lather—rich, dense, and loyal to the blade. There is no factory goop pretending to be soap here, only the patient transmutation of raw matter into ritual form.
The King’s fragrance begins with the spark of citrus, bright as an invocation, then softens to violet and heliotrope—ethereal mists above swamp water. Clove and geranium bring the pulse of old rites, patchouli and pine exude primal mysticism, while a final trace of vanilla curls like smoke above cooling embers. With every shave, you are ensnared in a captivating elixir, evoking the essence of the Voodoo King, a magic that leaves all under your spell.
Each small batch is blended and cured under the Apothecary’s watch, released only when it meets his exacting standards. The full-size vessel offers space for a proper lathering dance.
This batch reflects the Apothecary’s original formula—crafted with shea butter and aloe. Future castings of the King will draw upon a new, mango-heavy base, richer still and made to honor his enduring legend.

Absolutely beautiful brush. What a great idea to be able to pick components to customize your brush. Rich always is trying to figure out new ways to serve his customers. I have several of his brushes and they are all great.
Great quality. I would purchase again.
Quality, form, and function are all fantastic. Fits perfectly in your hand while working up a good lather. Mine came with a greater amount of red coloration compared to the silver and in my opinion makes the piece look stunning.
These bowls are absolutely incredible!!!
Stunning bowl. Great lather. Rich worked with me to swap out the item I preordered for a newer, in stock item, which was awesome. Medium is pretty big, wouldn’t go any bigger. The bowl looks as good in real life as the pics!
