HALLORAN & CO. — THE AUTUMN EDIT

May Season Studio Archives

Five new scents. The same soap you already love.
Autumn is here, and so are five new ways to wash your hands.
Same gentle, time-honored bar we have been making since 1904. Same soft lather, same all-day softness, same clean that just feels different from everything else. We never touch what works. We just give you new ways to enjoy it.
This season, meet the five.
CEDAR & ASH
Split cedar and the warm, smoky comfort of a fire burned down low. Cozy, grounding, and pure autumn. The one you will want by the kitchen sink all season.
OXBLOOD
Rich, deep, a little bit luxe, with a warm leather note that smells far more expensive than it is. Back by popular demand, and only for autumn. It sells out every single year. Do not wait on this one.
DUSK MILK
Soft, warm, and barely sweet. Our gentlest bar yet, made for sensitive skin and gentle enough for the whole family. The cozy classic you will reach for again and again.
TAUPE
Powdery, quiet, and impossible to describe, which is exactly why we love it. Our testers could not stop reaching for it and neither could we. Understated, elegant, and somehow always the first to run out.
COLD CREAM & IRON
Cool, clean, and just a little mysterious, with a crisp note our perfumer calls “an old room, beautifully kept.” The most distinctive scent in the collection, and the one our testers asked for first. Different. In the best way.
The Autumn Edit is here now, in bar and liquid, and in our refillable vessel. Five new scents. The same great soap. The only hard part is choosing.
Halloran & Co. Clean since 1904.

Product Feedback Response






I love how the familiar language of advertising slowly becomes storytelling. The products almost disappear, leaving the reader inside the world you’ve created. That’s a rare kind of writing. Thank you for sharing it.
A unique line of soaps!
