Mountaineer Brand Beard Grooming Kit | Beard Oil (2oz), Conditioning Balm (2oz), Wash (4oz), and Brush | Mustache Growth Kit for Men, WV Coal Scented

I have been able to try all of the scents that Mountaineer carries for their beard oil, so here is my review of each!I will put them in order from my top pick to my least favorite. Ultimately, I have been happy with all of their products I've tried. The beard wash, oil and balms have been great for me, and have made my beard soft and smelling great! I haven't had any real breakouts or issues with any irritating my skin at all. I think the only time I had a very minor irritation, and one very tiny blemish, was when I tried different scented oils back to back for a couple of days, without washing my beard in between. They suggest to only wash with the beard wash up to twice a week, so I did that. I think if I didn't change the oils, I wouldn't have had an issue. Since then, no problems at all, because I wash before switching oils.FYI: I just noticed they started selling a sample pack of each of their oils on their website. It is a good price to try out all their options to see what is your favorite!The description in parenthesis is their description of the scent off their website. My thoughts are after that!#1: Timber (Mild Scent of Cedar & Fir Needle) - This is my favorite scent so far. It does have a woodsy smell, much more than the other scents. Not so much "christmas tree" needles smell, but more of the cedar side. The oil and balm both have the same scent. The Wash is quite a bit different, in my opinion. To me, it smells like a cave! It immediately makes me remember my times spelunking and touring caves! It has that limestone smell to it. I actually love it, but it may surprise people. But, it washes off immediately, so it is not long lasting at all.#2 - Coal (Sage with hints of Peppermint & Patchouli): At first, I didn't think I liked this much. But after my second time using it, I absolutely love it! The sage and patchouli are the defining scents here. However, the minute I smell it, it reminds me of working on cars with my dad when I was younger. Like a mixture of what you'd smell in a garage...hard to describe. Oil, antifreeze, grease...manly! I hope I'm not turning people off by that, but it is just the memories it brings to me when smelling it. It is actually very pleasant smelling! In fact, my wife and female coworkers always make a comment about how good it smells! I've only tried the oil so far, but am purchasing the whole kit today.#3 - Citrus & Spice (Warm Clove with hints of Orange and Grapefruit): This is definitely the more "sweet" smelling of their products, however, I would say that there is more of a spice smell, instead of the citrus. Definitely the clove stands out. It is great! This one and the Coal one are battling it out for the #2 spot for me! I do feel that this scent wears off fairly quickly, compared to the others, though. I've only tried the oil so far.#4 - Pine Tar (Strong Scent of Pine Tar (Pine Tar is effective at combating dry skin and this scent is designed for effect not fragrance)): When I purchased the Pine Tar kit, I had no idea what Pine Tar was supposed to smell like. I thought it would be like the sap from a christmas tree...but I was way wrong! Pine Tar smells like smoke. Smoke from a campsite basically. So, I was quite taken back, and hated it at first. But, it actually grew on me after a few tries. It is still my least favorite of all the scented ones, though. I will not purchase it again, but will use what I have after I warmed up to it. As the company's description states: Pine Tar is designed to combat dry skin and dandruff, and not for a fragrant effect. But, if you like smokey smells, this is right up your alley!#5 - Barefoot (Unscented): Just as it states, this oil has absolutely no scent that I can detect. It is just oil to use when you want a soft beard, but don't like smelling like a scent. So, for that, I can say that it is 100% perfect, because there truly is no smell at all. For me, I like the scented oils, so that's why this is last on my list. I toyed with putting it above the Pine Tar scent, but I would rather have a scented one over none.Overall, I love this brand of beard oils, and the scents they have! I do with the scents would last a little longer throughout the day (some do!), but it's kind of normal for them to fade as the day progresses. Good stuff, though, and the company worked with me when I had an issue with an order. Very professional and cares about their customers!

I've been a beardsman for a very long time. I've tried a ton of beard products, and over the last few years I have even made my own beard balms and beard oils. Mountaineer Brand is one of the best company's on the market !For people who dont like long reviews I will sumerize my opinions for you. ( All Natural beard care, larger amounts, a great price, and they do the job.)My recent purchase was the beard kit with the WV Timber scent. First thing I look at is price. Not only is the price very reasonable, but the amount of beard balm, oil and wash in the kit is awesome. Most company's only give you 1 Oz options, Mountaineer provides 2 Oz with balms and oils and 8 oz of wash. I enjoy the WV Timber scent. It's a woodsy and earthy aroma that fades pretty quickly. I would prefer the oil to be a little stronger in scent or last longer, but that is my personal preference. The balm has a more dominant eucalyptus scent which I like as well. Both do a great job at hydrating my beard and skin. The balm is a very soft butter like consistency that melts into oil and absorbs well. Try the heavy duty Balm for more of shaping quality. I purchased this as well because I have a very curly beard and this helps it stay in shape on certain days that I need it to. The heavy duty Balm has a citrus scent. The beard wash is awesome. The scent is alot like the balm but a little earthy. I usually use kirks or grandpa's pine tar, but this was a nice alternative.The biggest thing for me is the ingredients. You have probably heard it from other beardsmen. If you cant pronounce it ! Don't use it ! I must agree, I only use all natural beard care products and you have it here.I've seen some complaints about the brush in other reviews, loss of bristles or being too rough. I didn't have any problems at all. In fact I found the brush to be much softer then other beard brushes I have, and no loss of bristles.Again you get a quality all natural beard care product at a great price. In no way am I getting paid for this review. I just think Mountaineer Brand is a solid company. Cheers !
