The Gentleman's Barber Shop
The old door with the large glass panes creaks a bit when you open it.
You step into this realm of scents and silence.
Even the few steps that lead you to that old chair, which squeaks as it is pumped up as soon as you take a seat, make the everyday life fall away from you.
You can close your eyes and completely surrender to the silence.
To the scent …
This rugged scent that draws you here time and again.
Wood ... leather ... and something indefinable, noble.
The hot towel on your face brings a pleasant drowsiness over you, which you surrender to and which carries you away on a dream journey to distant lands and long-gone times.
With a light hand, the barber applies the caring essences to your skin. He takes his time with it. Massaging them in, so gently, so quietly …
You hardly feel the mild stroke of the razor, curved with the experience and artistry of many decades.
The ticking of the venerable regulator on the paneled wall above the large mirrors seems to set the rhythm for the friendly old gentleman.
And then … finally … comes the moment you have been longing for so eagerly.
The barber presents you with that aftershave, which for you is the scent of the gentleman - Victorian Lime Cologne.
You let him apply it and feel one with a tradition that today only a few can truly understand.
Can an afternoon end more successfully?
