Made for up close

Bale is a pheromone-infused body butter made for the moments when someone is close enough to notice. Wear it where she will notice: neck, chest, wrists. We sell the scent, not a promise.

Why it is still there at midnight

Spray cologne is mostly alcohol, and alcohol leaves. Butter stays on the skin. Put Bale on damp skin after the shower, on the neck, chest and wrists, and it lasts 12+ hours on most skin.

What you are paying for in the bottle

A designer bottle is glass, a cap, a box and a name. The scent is the small part. Bale puts a profile inspired by the original into a 6 oz jar of shea and cocoa butter for $25, and three jars are $58.08 with a free mystery gift.

The jar

6 oz of whipped shea and cocoa butter. Absorbs in about a minute with no shine. Moisturizes and leaves skin soft. 12+ hours on most skin, longest on damp skin after a shower. Paraben-free and sulfate-free. Handmade in small batches.

The sack

Your order arrives wrapped in a real coffee sack. No two are alike. A card in every package tells you where in the world your sack came from. The sack is the wrap, not the scent; none of the six scents smells of coffee.
