Gentleman's Nod- Kensei Aftershave

Kensei is the continuation of the Musashi saga. Kensei literally translated means “sword saint.” It is an honorary title afforded to a swordsman of legendary skill. Musashi is the swordsman most commonly referred to as Kensei 

Kensei opens with a beautiful unique citrus blast. It is light, juicy, tangy and undeniably uplifting. The Nashi pear only adds to this light, juicy and delectable opening.

The light, fresh open transforms with the rich, complexity of Lapsang Suchong tea. The uniqueness of this tea cannot be overstated. The tea is smoke dried over pine wood creating an effect that adds a hint of wood smoke and resin to the depth of black tea. The floral combo of Neroli and Violet keep the fragrance light and fresh extending the lift from the citrus open. 

An exotic mix of black pepper and saffron create a luxurious creamy, warm spiced effect that leads into a comforting woody finish.
