What does Commando smell like?

Commando is the name given to our fragrance-free line of high-quality grooming products. The only smell will be those of the natural oils, waxes and butters with no added essences.

Why Name a scent Commando?

Many people desire products that are purely functional without the addition of fragrances. Some simply do not want their "product" competing aromatically with their favorite colognes and perfumes. Ever conscious of the needs, wants and desires of our customers, we decided to create fragrance-free versions of all our grooming products.

"To Go Commando" (aka free-balling) is an idiomatic phrase signifying the act of not wearing underwear. We were having trouble coming up with a name for our unscented line since our core fragrances are all based on and named for historic Brooklyn neighborhoods. No neighborhood would have been flattered to be the namesake of the blank scent, so we challenged friend-to-the-brand Jim Chu with the task of naming the unscented line. In only seconds he exclaimed "I've got it! Go commando!" And thus our Commando line was born.

The name was perfect because going without underwear is what you do when you want to be unencumbered and free from restraint, but you still have to cover up your body with clothes to step out into the world. So in these products expect everything necessary to perform their specific respective functions, but with nothing extra getting in the way or cramping your style.

Directions for Use:

What does Williamsburg smell like?

This fragrance boasts a depth of character not to be missed. Its complexity is derived from the striking diversity among its four key essences.
Classical, nature-derived aromas work in symphony to create a contemporary reimagining of what a man’s fragrance ought to be. Strapping, woody Cedar Atlas and Cedar Virginia stand alongside the brightness and warmth of Ho Wood and the delicate, floral fruitiness Ylang Ylang.
It’s a life-affirming walk through the woods on a cool, dewy dawn; it’s a rowboat reaching the center of the lake just before sunrise; it’s walking through the turnstile, passed the crowd, down the subway stairs and onto the train a split second before the doors close behind you.
Williamsburg smells like personal triumph.

Why Name a scent Williamsburg?

We love Williamsburg because if you’re sensitive, quiet or attentive, you can positively feel a surge of creativity everywhere along the neighborhood’s streets.
The people in the area are passionate and driven. Often written off simply as hipsters (whatever that means), Williamsburg residents are known for their fashion, lifestyle and sensibility that embraces and glamourizes the distinctly unglamorous, blending the best of the past with the cutting edge of tomorrow, perhaps only for the sake of irony or the novelty of juxtaposition.
Either way, it’s inspired. One of our guiding principles at Brooklyn Grooming is that “In order to achieve success, you must love what you do."
We have always felt this idea is reflected in the community of Williamsburg.
