Motivated by the frigid mid-West winter of 2014, Shawn Maher began creating a nourishing, protective post-shave salve that restored his wind-chapped skin. Inspired by the response of testers, he launched Chatillon Lux in Dec. 2015. His business boomed as he added on other post-shave products with wonderful performance and exceptional scents, including a line of Eau de Toilette.
A love for his city of South Saint Louis, MO inspires Shawn to take his names and scents from the places and people that inhabited this corner of the heartland. Chatillon Lux is named for Henri Chatillon, a French fur trader and central figure on the Oregon Trail. He lived and loved with the Sioux people until the untimely death of his wife, Bear Robe. Upon returning to his hometown of St. Louis, he married Odile Delor Lux, daughter of the founder of Carondelet (South Saint Louis). The "most gallant a man . . . as ever shot buffalo", Chatillon is quintessential frontier man and inspiration for manly pursuits like wet shaving.
Henry Shaw was heir to a steel manufacturing company out of Sheffield, England and made his fortune quickly after her arrived in St. Louis at the tender age of 19. His extensive travels brought him around the world - Southern Europe, Northern Africa, the Far East all inspired his desire to bring those botanical wonders back to St. Louis where he founded Shaw's Garden (eventually Missouri Botanical Gardens and Tower Grove Park). Those exotic scents lay the foundation for this scent. Notes of dusty, sultry rose and cardamom from Morocco, bergamot from Italy, and black pepper from India are all placed on a masculine sandalwood accord.
