Batavia Barber

This is the most appropriate scent to describe Jakarta. Imagine coming to this crowded metropolitan city and passing through the narrow alleys around Kota Tua. In the Chinatown area, there is an old barbershop that is now deserted but has its own charm. As soon as you enter, you will be greeted by the aroma and atmosphere of vintage, the room is filled with the aroma of classic soap-scented hair care products. In one of the upper corners of the room, an old fan rotates slowly, slightly dusty, and tries to fight the heat and humidity of Jakarta's air. There are only two old leather chairs, bit worn as a sign that they have been used by many clients in their time. The leather looks cracked and emits the distinct smell of dirty leather that creates an interesting nuance. As you sit down, the old barber will drape a steaming hot towel around your neck and welcome you to the comfortable reality of Batavia Barber. Juris / @fragranceisindividual
