Scent Profile
-
Top Notes: Pine Needle, Elemi, Cumin & Coriander
-
Middle Notes: Frankincense, Patchouli & Tobacco
-
Base Notes: Sandalwood & Amber
The Expedition Reserve opens with a bracing hit of Pine Needle and Elemi, grounded by the warm spice of Cumin and Coriander. Frankincense and Patchouli deepen the heart into something richer and more resinous, with Tobacco adding intrigue. The dry-down settles into Sandalwood and Amber - warm, smooth, and built to last. A fougere that wears with the quiet confidence of a man who has been somewhere worth going.
Key Ingredients
-
Yellow Beeswax (Cera Flava) - The primary hold agent, providing structure and shape while conditioning the moustache hair.
-
White Beeswax (Cera Alba) - Works alongside Yellow Beeswax to refine the texture and ensure smooth, even application.
-
Petrolatum - Adds pliability to the formula for smooth, workable application without brittleness.
How To Use
Scrape a small amount of wax - roughly the size of a match head - from the tin using a finger or thumbnail. Warm between fingertips until pliable, then work evenly through the moustache, shaping and styling as desired. A fine-toothed comb can be used to refine the shape. Use daily for best results.
Why MASC Recommends This
The Expedition Reserve Moustache Wax completes one of the most cohesive fragrance collections in the Captain Fawcett lineup. Running the wax alongside the beard oil creates a layered, consistent scent that carries throughout the day without effort - and the medium hold makes it a practical daily driver for most moustache styles. For anyone already committed to the Expedition Reserve collection, this is the natural final piece. Available at MASC in 15ml.
