Men's Patchouli Shampoo Bar – Rice Water | VIORI
(37 reviews)
$11.75
A whisky-infused shampoo bar for men who want their hair care to work as hard as they do. Hamish & Co bars are made with single malt Scotch whisky — not for the flavor, but because whisky is rich in antioxidants, ellagic acid, and amino acids that strengthen hair and protect it from environmental damage. Combined with Longsheng rice water, it's a shampoo bar built for function, not fragrance marketing. Works on every hair type and scalp.

I’m really impressed with the VIORI Rice Water Protein solid shampoo. I wasn’t sure what to expect at first, but it turned out to be a great find. It lathers beautifully, cleanses the scalp gently without drying out my hair, and leaves it feeling fresh and light. What I love most is how my hair looks after using it—more voluminous, soft, and it stays clean longer, which is a big plus for oily hair. The compact solid format is also super convenient and lasts a long time, making it perfect for travel. Overall, it’s a great balance of effective care, natural ingredients, and practicality. Definitely something I’ll keep using!
Just WOW. Incredibly rich lather. it suds up so well! im hooked after just one use! instant customer for life!!!! I've never experienced a shampoo that requires so little yet does so much! thank you for such an amazing product! <3 love
This soap-shampoo is amazing! 😍 It smells absolutely delicious, and after washing, hair feels so light and soft. Such a wonderful feeling of cleanliness and smoothness — hair looks great and is easy to comb. I will definitely buy it again!
I believe this charred patchouli is my favorite so far!!! I’ve tried the hidden waterfall and sandalwood. But this one I LOVE LOVE LOVE! This is my hair today right after getting out of the shower. This is definitely not for men only! Love the scent, the leather and softness of the conditioner💜 If you love the patchouli scent with a softer added scent, you will LOVE THIS!
I originally bought this for my to try and he liked ok. My son ended up with it and he says it’s great for his hair. Left it soft(he has long hair). Could use the conditioner though. So I’ll have to purchase that next. The scent is not over powering either.
Love how my hair feels so light and healthy :)
My scalp feels so refreshed after used this bar. And my hair has become softer and more glowing.
I get so many compliments on my hair since I started using this shampoo
Shampoo Bar for Men | Longsheng Rice Water + Scottish Islay Whisky Infused
I've been using viori products for a few years now! I love it! Don't be afraid to mix up the shampoos and conditioners. My hair is sooooo shinny! I'm loving the new whiskey bars. I wasn't sure what it would smell like and I think it's my favorite so far!!! Just enough sent.

Hamish Duo Bundle | Shampoo + Conditioner Set | Longsheng Rice Water + Scottish Islay Whisky Infused
I ordered the aged sandalwood shampoo & conditioner for my husband's beard. He loved it! I also tried it on my hair and I loved it too! The smell was amazing and it was long lasting. Very nice!
Hamish Duo Bundle | Shampoo + Conditioner Set | Longsheng Rice Water + Scottish Islay Whisky Infused
O bought it for my grandson as he has longer hair. We have tried other conditioners and shampoos but he says this one makes his tangles after showering go away. Will definitely buy again
My boyfriend loves Viori since I had gotten a bar for xmas. He has a history of dry scalp and with work he is in an extremely dry environment, but using this bar (even daily), he has not had any issues!
Absolutely amazing and you know what I noticed no hair ever get stuck on the actual bar. I gave a review already on the conditioner side, so I’m just obsessed with this product.
Love this smell and works just as well as the other bars I’ve bought. However, may I suggest a girly version of patchouli - with a plum or berry vs the bourbon. I always recommend this brand for shampoo/conditioner.
I don’t recall how I first discovered your bar shampoo/ conditioner…. But ever so glad I did! Rich lather, rinses well (nothing sticky or residue). Bars last a long time. Scent works great with my chemistry. Conditioner, same!!!!
Good scent but not too strong, good lather, hair feels clean.
It works great for my gray hair. I wish the sandalwood smell was a little more prominent. My hair feels clean and soft.
This has been my favorite so far second time buying. I really like the smell as well. I think it is a unisex fragrance the plus side is the hair type or condition it is for the conditioner bar is a plus. I go thru two shampoo bars to on conditioner bar.
I am trying to eliminate toxins put on my hair and skin by using this product. This product does that for me. The quality of the shampoo and conditioner bar is amazing. I have tried other products like this that really stink... but this is luxurious compared to the rest I have tried.
I love the shampoo they smell amazing and my bar lasted me almost a year!
Love love love this product so much!
Love the smell and lather!
I have used Viori products for 3 years now. I love the results. My hair is very healthy and my beautician tells me everytime he cuts my hair how healthy it is. I tell him it's thanks to Viori products!!
It shampoos very clean. Great lather and fragrance
I got samples at their booth. Wanted to get full size after using it. It foaming really good and rinse really well. No sliminess or rinse forever. I have a lot of hair, so I like it if rinse well. Wish it has little stronger smell because smell so good! After dry my hair, stay smooth and hold my hair feel clean longer. Only used for few times but I like it so far.
I am currently growing my hair out after losing it all from chemotherapy. Since I only have about 3 in to work with you'll have to wait for a little bit to get a fuller review. Let me just say it smells lovely. I do find it funny that my favorite scents, the Julie and sandalwood, are in the men's department, as it were.
I've been using Viori Shampoo, conditioner and body wash bars for years and buy the men's products for my son. He loves them as much as I do! They leave hair squeaky clean, shiny and healthy looking for days. Highly recommended!
wonderful shampoo, smells great and makes my hair very soft and shiny
I have been using Viro products for over 2 years. I bought the men combo for my son how has curly hair he looks the smell and the feel after using it
I honestly love Viori and everything it stands for. I’ve been searching for a product that doesn’t make me lose hair, after covid and birth control I’ve been losing it uncontrollably. Now, this is easy on my hair, discrete, easy to bring with me, and smells great. I’m helping the environment and making a better choice for myself. Even my boyfriend, who I got his first bar for Christmas, loves it!
I bought this one for my son after having purchased multiple for myself and loving them. He likes it so much he asked for another one!
Shampoo and conditioner are great and perfect for traveling. Just wish the bars towards the end (but still with a lot left) would not break apart into small pieces, which make it hard to use so you throw away product unnecessarily.
My hair texture, shine and condition has improved so much since using these products. I have found my favorite formula and fragrance in the Sandalwood collection. I look forward to my shower every day! These bars are ideal for travel as well - we traveled in Europe for a month last year, and the bars make the perfect all in one non- liquid travel product. Thank you!!!
The bar does smell strong coming out of the box, but mellows out nicely upon application. A nice lather and gentle clean. I like it.
The bar smells really nice (almost like sprite lol) and lathers easily onto your hair and scalp. Really love that its not full of harmful chemicals or packaged in a plastic bottle.
Husband likes it and so much easier to use.
My fiance loves this product it is helping with hair regrowth and strengthening his hair while it makes his hair smoother.
Exquisite! Lathers well, rinses well!
Easy to use! Smells amazing and my son’s hair is more manageable since using this! He can wash his hair himself (5 yrs) and it doesn’t take forever to rinse out!

The Science
Why a bar outperforms a bottle
-
1
Cold-press extraction
Longsheng rice is cold-pressed for inositol — the same compound trichology studies link to measurable shaft strengthening.
-
2
Sulfate-free surfactant
Coconut-derived cleanser lifts oil and product residue without stripping the cuticle. pH 5.0–5.5, scalp-matched.
-
3
Solid-state delivery
No water as filler. Every bar is concentrated active — that’s why one replaces ~3 bottles.
All-Natural Ingredients

Questions
Things people ask first
How long does one bar last?
About 80 washes — roughly the equivalent of three bottles of liquid shampoo. Stored on a slatted holder, dry between uses, you'll usually get 2–3 months out of a bar.
Is it safe for color-treated hair?
Yes. The formula is sulfate-free and pH 5.0–5.5, both of which protect color longevity. Independent reporters with color-treated hair haven't seen accelerated fade.
What if my hair feels weird the first few washes?
That's the transition phase — sulfate residue and silicone buildup releasing. It usually takes 2–4 washes. If after a week it still doesn't feel right, send it back, no questions.
How do I travel with it?
Use the travel tin. Bars are solid-state, so they don't count as a liquid for TSA. One bar replaces a 12oz bottle in your carry-on.
Subscription vs. bundle — can I stack?
No — it's whichever discount is larger. Subscription gets you 20% off, the trio bundle is also 20%. We don't double-stack so the unit price stays sustainable.
What's your guarantee?
30 days. Use the bar, see how your hair feels. If it's not for you, we'll refund it — even if you've used the entire thing.
