With luxurious products, a slogan underlining superiority and a website where pictures compensate for words, Gold Dachs has made it big as an European classic in the world of shaving. Focusing on the precision and quality of their goods, the German brand has left its clientele wondering when it comes to the manufacturing company. Digging for answers, the puzzle remains: will we ever know who hides behind the symbol of the "golden badger" or should we just enjoy the finest grooming leaving the detailed story in the fog?
There is no doubt that Gold Dachs has German roots. When it comes to the brilliant mind behind this story of success, confusion arises. Some label it as a masterpiece range under Dittmar GmbH, others individualize it as a separate company. Question also abound when it comes to the bestseller Gold Dachs shaving soap: formerly sold under the name "Rivivage", its pleasant lather has not made things any clearer with most buyers asking themselves if there are two distinct products or just one with two names.
Enchanted or puzzled by the mystery of Gold Dachs, one thing remains constant: their products are excellent! The 100% organic shaving soap softens the beard easily and has a clean, fresh smell. The after shave, apparently produced since 1971 works on both sensitive and normal skin, reinvigorating it without dehydration or burning. The shaving sets with wood/aluminum finish remind you of true German precision, not lacking on elegance in design.
Great quality outshines uncertainty; Gold Dachs is the perfect example for an excellent brand wrapped in a long lasting mystery.
