Ol' Kentucky Eau de Parfum – Bourbon & Oak Cologne – Artisan Fragrance

⚠️ IMPORTANT: PRODUCTION TIME This item is compounded fresh to order. Please allow 3–5 business days for our artisans to blend and bottle your fragrance before shipping.

Distilled sophistication. Bottled at full strength.

Some scents shout; others command the room with a whisper. Ol' Kentucky is the latter. Inspired by the winner's circle at the Derby and the contents of a fine oak barrel, this fragrance is a tribute to the Southern Gentleman.

This is an Eau de Parfum (EDP) formulation. Unlike watered-down drug store colognes that vanish in an hour, we compound this with a high concentration of fragrance oils. It is designed to project clearly and stay with you for 8+ hours, evolving on your skin from a boozy opening to a warm, woody dry down.

The Scent Profile:

• The Opening: A smooth, inviting pour of Bourbon and Citrus.
• The Heart: The warmth of American Oak and creamy Sandalwood.
• The Finish: A sophisticated base of Patchouli and a hint of powder that lingers like the atmosphere of a private study.

The Craftsman’s Promise:

• Small Batch: We don't mass produce. We blend, age, and bottle our fragrances in small batches in Chandler, AZ to ensure the notes remain crisp and distinct.
• Clean Chemistry: Free of parabens and phthalates. Just pure fragrance and perfumer's alcohol.

How to Wear:

• Target: Apply 1-2 sprays to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears).
• Don't Rub: Let the spray dry naturally on your skin. Rubbing wrists together breaks down the top notes and alters the scent.
• Layer: For maximum longevity, apply over the matching Ol' Kentucky Aftershave Splash.

Note: Because this item is compounded fresh to your order, returns are not accepted. We highly recommend ordering the 1 oz size first if you are unsure of the scent.

Full Scent Profile

Boozy. Oaked. Smooth.

Primary Notes: Bourbon, Oak Barrel, Sandalwood.

The Vibe: The official spirit of the Derby. This scent is an ode to the Bluegrass State and its most famous export. It captures the warmth of a rickhouse, where barrels of bourbon age slowly in the summer heat. It is rich, creamy, and deeply American.

The Profile: Crafted with bourbon at its core, this fragrance is smooth rather than stinging. We started with the whiskey note and blended it with a base of oak wood and sandalwood to replicate the barrel itself. A hint of patchouli and powder softens the edges, creating a sophisticated finish that smells expensive.

Who It’s For: The Connoisseur. Whether you are a whiskey enthusiast or just appreciate heritage goods, this scent resonates. It is perfect for a relaxing evening or a casual weekend. It smells like tradition.
