Founded in 2012 by Douglas and Frances, the brand operates primarily through its own e-commerce boutique at phoenixshaving.com, where it curates a wide range of shaving soaps, aftershaves, safety razors, preshave products, deodorants, apparel, and accessories. The company describes itself as "two people very passionate about what we do," creating "unique, long lasting aftershaves that blur the line between a cooling splash and a cologne" and "rebooting a classic safety razor or scent from the past." Its product line includes the ultra-premium CK-6 soap formula, seasonal scents such as Blue Samhain and Atomic Pumpkin, the CUBE preshave soap, and a variety of classic-inspired safety razors.

The company remains privately held and independent, with no known parent company or outside ownership.
History
Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements was founded in 2012 by Douglas and Frances, a couple who describe themselves as "two people very passionate about what we do."

The company operates its own online boutique, phoenixshaving.com, which it describes as "one of the most original, online traditional shave boutiques out there." Over the years, Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements has developed a reputation for its ultra-premium CK-6 soap formula, seasonal scent releases such as Blue Samhain and Atomic Pumpkin, and its CUBE preshave soap. It has also expanded into safety razors inspired by vintage designs, as well as apparel and lifestyle accessories.
