HAGS Flor de Dragones HATHOR X Shaving Soap 4oz

Product Overview

HAGS Flor de Dragones HATHOR X Shaving Soap is a 4 oz artisan shaving soap created in collaboration with the hosts of Shave Masters: Douglas Embry, John Bonham, and Barry Bedford of A Texan Shaves. Flor de Dragones is an original fragrance created from the ground up for this collaboration, combining bright citrus and clean freshness with rose, florals, rum, spice, oud, suede leather, patchouli, ambered woods, musk, and warm tonka-oak.

The soap features HAGS Artisan's upgraded HATHOR X base, an evolution of the original HATHOR formula. Produced using a controlled hot-process method, HATHOR X has a firmer croap texture and is designed to accept more water while maintaining a dense, stable lather. The formula incorporates tallow, donkey milk, rice bran oil, mango seed butter, murumuru seed butter, jojoba seed oil, and kaolin clay.

Quick Take

Flor de Dragones pairs an original citrus, floral, rum, oud, leather, and woody fragrance with the upgraded HAGS HATHOR X shaving soap base. Expect a firmer loading surface, high water tolerance, dense cushioning, enhanced slickness and residual glide, and a clean, comfortable post-shave feel.

Scent Notes

Top Notes: Pink Grapefruit, Bergamot, Clean Soapy Sparkle

Heart Notes: Velvet Rose, Clean Florals, Rum Sweetness, Gentle Spice

Base Notes: Oud, Suede Leather, Patchouli, Ambered Woods, Musk, Warm Tonka-Oak

Flor de Dragones begins with pink grapefruit and bergamot, giving the opening a bright, crisp citrus character accented by a clean, soapy sparkle. The heart introduces velvet rose and clean florals alongside rum sweetness and gentle spice. As the fragrance develops, oud, suede leather, earthy patchouli, ambered woods, musk, and warm tonka-oak create a deeper and darker finish.

Fresh and citrusy at the opening, floral and intoxicating through the heart, then deep, leathery, woody, and earthy in the drydown, Flor de Dragones moves through distinctly different layers as the fragrance develops.

Best For

Flor de Dragones is well suited to traditional wet shavers who enjoy complex fragrances that contrast fresh citrus and clean florals with darker oud, leather, patchouli, musk, and woods. The HATHOR X base is designed for shavers who appreciate a dense, highly hydrated lather with substantial cushioning, slickness, and residual glide.

Performance Profile

• Dense Cushion: HATHOR X is formulated to produce a denser, more protective lather structure.
• Enhanced Slickness: The upgraded base is designed for increased slickness and improved residual glide.
• High Water Tolerance: HATHOR X is engineered to accept significantly more water while maintaining lather density and stability.
• Controlled Loading: A firmer, grippier surface provides a more deliberate brush-loading experience.
• Residual Glide: The formula is designed to maintain glide during extended buffing and precision work.
• Post-Shave Feel: HAGS describes the finish as moisturized, soft, comfortable, and velvety without a greasy or tacky residue.

HATHOR X Soap Base

HATHOR X is the evolved version of the original HAGS HATHOR shaving soap base. HAGS rebuilt the formula for stronger structure, increased water tolerance, enhanced slickness, improved residual glide, and greater consistency while retaining the comfort associated with the original base.

The soap is produced using a controlled hot-process method designed to create a tighter and more resilient soap matrix. According to HAGS, this allows the base to absorb additional water while maintaining its density, structure, and stability throughout the shave.

HATHOR X has a firmer croap texture than its predecessor. The firmer surface is designed to provide controlled brush loading while the highly water-tolerant formula develops into a dense, creamy, heavy lather when fully hydrated.

Key Ingredients

• Donkey Milk: Included by HAGS to contribute to a comfortable, hydrated post-shave feel and overall skin balance.
• Rice Bran Oil: Used to enhance glide while maintaining a clean, lightweight skin feel.
• Mango Seed Butter: Helps reinforce lather body and structure while supporting a creamy, dense texture.
• Murumuru Seed Butter: Rich in fatty acids and included to help maintain skin softness and elasticity.
• Jojoba Seed Oil: Provides skin-compatible wax esters that support a calm, conditioned finish.
• Kaolin Clay: Included to add subtle cushion and improve razor feedback without drying the skin.
• Tallow: Potassium Tallowate is incorporated into the HATHOR X shaving soap base.
• Glycerin: Included as a humectant within the formulation.

A Word from the Manufacturer

Flor de Dragones was born in a place that shouldn't exist, an ancient canyon where the cliffs burn red, the sky turns violet, and the wind moves like something alive.

The first breath is pure desert morning: pink grapefruit and bergamot, bright and crisp, followed by a clean soapy sparkle. As the heat rises, velvet rose and clean florals emerge alongside rum sweetness and gentle spice.

In the drydown, oud becomes dark and smoky while suede leather, earthy patchouli, ambered woods, musk, and warm tonka-oak create the deeper side of the fragrance. Flor de Dragones isn't just a scent. It's a sighting.

Flor de Dragones is an original HAGS fragrance created from the ground up in collaboration with Shave Masters hosts Douglas Embry, John Bonham, and Barry Bedford of A Texan Shaves.

Directions

HATHOR X has a firmer croap texture. Do not bloom the soap. Load a damp shaving brush directly from the surface for approximately 10 to 15 seconds. Build the lather in a shaving bowl or directly on the face, adding water gradually. HATHOR X is highly water-tolerant and performs best when fully hydrated, producing a dense, creamy, heavy lather.

Pro Tip

Don't bloom HATHOR X. Load directly from the firmer surface for approximately 10 to 15 seconds, then concentrate on gradually adding water during lather building. HAGS specifically designed this base to tolerate substantial hydration, so continue working in small amounts of water until the lather becomes dense, creamy, and fully hydrated.
