Temple Smoke
A dark sacrificial chamber. A golden effigy rests on an intricately carved pedestal. You grab it. Everything shakes. A giant stone ball comes rolling down. You run through clouds of burning oud, frankincense, and myrrh.

Roller Ball vs Alcohol Spray
Oil vs Alcohol
The rollerball Eau de Parfum (EdP) is approximately 20% fragrance in MCT Oil (odorless, clear, refined coconut oil). Compared to an alcohol spray, it will be more subtle, wear closer to the body, and have a less intense application.
Oil is moisturizing for the skin, whereas alcohol can be drying and affect your body's natural microbiome.
Oil has a significantly longer evaporation timeframe. Be aware of where the product is applied to minimize marking clothing and materials you touch. To minimize leaving residue, rub oil fully into skin.
How to Use Oil EdP
- Apply to dry skin after showering while pores are clean and open.
- Roll the Eau de Parfum at a 45 degree angle on two to six pulse points on the body.
- Recommended pulse points: neck, behind ears, inner elbow, forearms, wrists (be aware it can be washed off easily), and chest
Body heat helps to diffuse the fragrance as you wear it, and a more personalized scent will develop as it mixes with your skin’s natural oils.
How Long EdP Lasts
Eau de Parfum by Bandholz will last 6–8 hours. To maximize performance, apply to dry skin after showering while pores are clean and open. A more personalized scent will develop as it mixes with your skin’s natural oils and will be more subtle than an alcohol spray experience.
Some customers experience olfactory fatigue where the fragrance is still noticeable, but not to the wearer. This is normal.
Fragrance Strength
Bandholz Eau de Parfum contains approximately 20% fragrance in the formulation.
Size of EdP
0.68 fl oz / 20 ml

NO PARABENS / NO PHTHALATES
I use the Utility Wash, the Utility Softener, and fi nish it all off with the Eau de Parfum. Have used Temple Smoke for years. I was bummed when it was discontinued for a while....but very glad it's back.
Single sonic sound vibrating over the dark waters, DynaMo Hum.
It’s been one of my favorite fragrances so far smells exactly like it’s advertised
Love it, Exactly as I expected it to be. I liked the cologne so much that ended buying other products same scent as well.
While I’ve been using Temple Smoke everything for years, the cologne has an extra punch of depth that’s so so good. I love to collect Parfums, and honestly I, and my wife, love Temple Smoke more than my Chanel’s, Diors, Guerlains, Tom Fords, niche, ect ect. Not sure about the roll on application (yet) and wish the bottle was a little bigger, but fairly priced and so dang good. I had the first run spray, and I think this one performs a little better (so far).
Hey guys, so glad you found this product and I'm excited to share it with you.
Traditional colognes are alcohol based. Alcohol will disrupt your microbiome, irritate the skin, and change your pH balance.
I didn't think cologne should wreck your skin and introduce a risk to more body odor, so that's why we went with an MCT Oil base for our fragrances.
Sprays leave half of the product in the air, potentially gassing out everyone around you.
So we went with a roller-ball to allow for discreet application with consideration for those around you. In addition to that, you're not wasting any product to the air. So a smaller bottle will last much longer than a spray.
These little bottles pack a punch and produce it at an Eau de Parfum strength level (~20% fragrance).
Roll it on your inner elbows, chest, knees, neck, and waist. The MCT Oil will absorb quickly, moisturize and protect your skin while making you smell amazing.
Finally, we packaged it in UV glass which enhances the anti-microbial properties of the packaging. The cool steel roller ball glides smoothly and I think you're gonna love it. It's been a long time in the works and excited for you to try it.
Enjoy our current offering and I wouldn't be surprised if our limited edition fragrances get a little cologne love in the future.
Sharing a photo of me with one of our prototypes.
Smell doesn't even last 5 minutes! Almost as if they put too much water in mine. VERY disappointed with this purchase. Will NOT be buying from here again.
I LOVE the Temple Smoke "Perfume" & I always get complemented for the fragrence I'm wearing. I'm am not however a fan of the all porpuse soap of the same name. I have used a brushh & mug to shave for 50 years. So I was really looking forward to trying yours.
Major disappointment. The lather is almost noexistant. I'll give it a shot in the shower but as a shaving lather it was a serious disappointment. I also fine the constant notices & reorder emails seriously annoying. I'm a "Big Boy" & I'll reorder when Ineed to .I'm also a fan of Black Sails & Old Money..My usual go to's have always been Guerlin, Taylors of Old Bond & Casswell Massy.
Oh & the Beard Balm is excellent too. I have a very course grray Goatee & the Balm keeeps it managable & well lubricated all day. Also does wonders for the chapped lips ,
Please stop sending me the Emails or I'll be forced to use Amazonaas y supplier & I absolutely HATE giveing that scum bagany buisness if I can at all help it
This stuff smells AMAZING. Immediately got a compliment the first time I wore it!
Love this smell
Love the scent, fades to fast.
Not sure where the "smoke" comes in, but the cologne is subtle, slightly sweet smelling and very pleasant. Perhaps not quite as distinctive as Nordic Winter.
Temple Smoke is one of those fragrances that’s nearly impossible to describe—but that’s exactly what makes it special. It has a clean, smoky aroma that’s dark, mysterious, and incredibly smooth. I even pick up a subtle cannabinoid-like note that adds to its unique character without overpowering the blend. It’s bold, intriguing, and keeps me coming back for another sniff. I’d say this scent is worth burning for.
Gonna take a while for me to get used to the scent. Very strong.
Temple Smoke is such an interesting and memorable fragrance. It has my personal signature all over it, with the clean, intriguing notes I naturally gravitate toward in a cologne. It feels refined, distinctive, and easy to wear — the kind of scent I genuinely enjoy reaching for again and again.
This is my signature scent it subtle but sweet.
So I started with Black Sails. That’s 6 out of 5 stars. The best. Then went to Four Vices to wear them together as recommended. Amazing. All the stars. Got this one to add to the mix and it’s almost perfect. The scent is 100%. Only issue is the strength. It’s just a bit low. Needs to be a tad stronger. Mixed with Black Sails it’s overpowered. Same with 4V. It needs to keep up with those powerhouses. Sails and Smoke should be an unbelievable combo and would be if we just had a bit more POWAH! Make it so!
Didn't know what to expect smells good, well kinda like an old man but not too bad. It would be nice to try small samples to know what they smell like before ordering accordingly.
This is amazing!
Great product and fast shipping
Temple smoke has a wafts of incense and like an old time barbershop. Brilliant

I really like the fragrance, especially the smokiness of it. It definitely has an incense character. However, as some others have mentioned, it could last a bit longer.
Same as last review, weak . Pass
Temple Smoke Men's Cologne
I love the chemistry between Temple Smoke and me. It’s clean and not heavy on thi hippie. (I wouldn’t mind if it was a little more patchouli forward)
My only word of warning or complaint is it doesn’t last long enough. I put it on just before leaving home and an hour later it’s gone. I guess if you don’t mind taking with you in your pocket, you’re all set.
Temple Smoke Men's Cologne
Second Best Scent I've found.
Wearing it as i review it and i loke this whole line
Temple smoke is a yellow pine framed house. Not mad at that. Would like to try some other scents because I like the way it goes on better than a spray. It’s manly and not gonna overpower anyone, however I’m a fan and when I can afford it….I will try a new scent. I know it’s not that expensive, but manly men are spending their money on brisket! Lolol
