When I first heard of Hawthorne, I had minimal interest. I will gladly admit how wrong I was. Their entire line is incredible. I listened to an interview with the founder on the Dewy Dudes podcast, and his personality and enthusiasm for men’s skincare and fragrance was infectious. Shortly thereafter I received a fullsize “Play” cologne in a special GQ box. I liked it. Then I got another in the regular quarterly GQ box. This time, it was from the “Work” line. That was enough to get me to the website. I purchased the fullsize limited edition Mineral Wave. That was and will be my scent of the summer. I also bought the lip balms, a candle, the fragrance sample set, the cooling shampoo, and the face wash. I’ll be back for deodorant, soap, bodywash, and other candles.
