Out of all the scents I have smelled, this one is IT! If you have a jealous wife or girlfriend, I don’t recommend it because you will be asked ALL DAY by the opposite sex what you are wearing! Great Job Nick!

The 1st sniff hits you within blueberry bourbon, and not the polite muffin kind. This is dark, boozy, “someone definitely made questionable decisions last night” blueberry. Then the vanilla brûlée rolls in like a torch-wielding dessert chef, setting your beard on fire—in a good way. No actual flames. Probably.

As it settles, things get downright ridiculous. You’ve got barrel-aged blueberry, smoked vanilla cheesecake, and blue amber all throwing a party in your beard. It’s rich, smooth, smoky, and sweet enough that strangers may assume you’re hiding pie in your face. You’re not. You’re just moisturized.

The dry-down is where it earns its swagger. Midnight oak and aged cedar step in to remind everyone that yes, this still belongs on a grown man’s beard—not a bakery display case. The bourbon-soaked blueberry pie and blueberry pipe smoke linger like a cozy, slightly dangerous campfire story you’d absolutely listen to twice.

Berried Treasure may cause unsolicited compliments, hunger, and accusations of hiding pastries in your beard.

Thanks again Rugged Pirate Beard Company for putting out this phenomenal scent!!

Squid Vicious doesn’t knock politely—it kicks the door in wearing a velvet coat and throws beads at your face. The initial scent explodes with fried beignets and king cake, a full-on sugar-dusted, warm-pastry assault that feels like stumbling out of Café du Monde at midnight with powdered sugar still on your hands. It’s loud, indulgent, and unapologetically festive. As it settles, creamy sandalwood rolls in and smooths out the chaos, adding a rich, polished warmth that keeps things grounded and masculine instead of cloying. Then comes the finish: dark cognac, boozy and smooth, lingering like the last drink of the night when the music’s still echoing down Bourbon Street.
.Squid Vicious wears bold, sweet, and warm with just enough wood and booze to keep it rugged and pirate-worthy. If you want subtle, keep sailing. If you want your beard to smell like Mardi Gras, mischief, and bad decisions you don’t regret—Captain Squid Vicious is your captain. 🦑🥃🎭

Excellent!!!

One of the best carrier oil blends I've ever used. Strong and beautiful scent that lasts all day

Frostbite Frankie slaps you in the face with the Grape and Blue Raspberry syrup!!! Next comes the icyness from the Shaved Ice and Frozen Juniper. You get a nice hint of the Lemon-Lime Zest in the middle which is so nice with the other notes! The Smoked Vanilla Snow Cream makes his appearance after a little while and the White Musk, Ambergris and Oud play a nice trio in grounding the scent out perfectly!!! Favorite from the series so far!!!

Yesterday I got an oil/butter combo of DJ Kernelz and wearing it today. WOW!!

DJ Kernelz is absolute controlled chaos in a bottle/jar. It opens with warm, buttery kettle corn—sweet, salty, and instantly nostalgic—before black lime slices through with a dark, smoky citrus edge. Just as you get comfortable, a flicker of chili spice shows up to keep things dangerous.

The heart is where it goes feral. Toasted coconut adds rich warmth while smoked paprika and carnival spices bring a dry, savory heat that feels like wandering a fairground after dark, fire pits glowing and grills still smoking.

The dry down is smooth and addictive: oak barrel, smoked vanilla, and embered woods settle in with a mature, fire-kissed finish that lingers without ever going cloying.

This is phenomenal. Very complex and perfectly mixed and balanced. Never smelled anything like it- definitely exceeded my expectations. Way to go Rugged Pirate Beard Company!!

Wow. not even so much if you like floral scents, this one just hits different. It's layered in a way that brings fresh and clean breathes into each smell. there's nothing overly feminine or definitively masculine. It's simply smooth and well Blended. Allowing the profile to speak volumes. This profile speaks softly and delivers a consistent bold scent. you sense all the notes, all Incorporated. it's a true Rose right away. That slowly evolves into the Nectars and blooms with an earthy feel of the oak moss and crisp deep birch. You can definitely tell that it's a fresh Breeze and warm summer rays grounding this absolutely well done profile.

I actually bought this hat myself before adding it to the shop because I wanted to make sure the quality was there. If it didn’t live up to the Rugged Pirate name, it wasn’t getting listed.

Good news, it absolutely did!!

The heather/black combo looks even better in person, the stitching is clean, and the fit is super comfortable without feeling stiff or cheap. It holds its shape well and has quickly become one of my everyday hats.
If I wouldn’t wear it, I wouldn’t sell it. This one earned its spot.

Makes my burns shine,smells great the entire day,love it…

One of a kind scent! It’s a little sweet and a lot manly! I don’t have anything in rotation that’s like it! Another banger from Rugged Pirate Beard Co.

By far the most universally loved coffee scent!

This scent is off the charts. The peach scent rushes at you before the bourbon, cedar and tobacco come out to play. Overall, well/balanced scent that exudes the excellence expected from Rugged Pirate!

Bought and have been using the Admiral Corleone solid butter and oil. Rich and smooth, this beard oil opens with classic pipe tobacco and sweet tobacco notes that feel warm and inviting. Mid-notes of Cuban-spiced tobacco and black cherry add a subtle sweet-spice complexity, while leather grounds the scent with a rugged, masculine finish. Well-balanced and distinctive without being overpowering. Very nice scent and feels great in the beard.

I was surprised at how light this scent profile is compared to the other oils I've tried, but it works, and it smells amazing!
