Finca Vigía (Ernest Saves Summer) LE Shave Soap
Sold Out
-
This will be a limited release and only available in shave soap and aftershave splash. This is for those who don’t determine their fragrance choice by season or just love the summer freshies. It is a mashup of Musashi and Ernest with a few minor tweaks. The uniquely fresh open of Musashi is present with the slight added sweetness of the mango and citrus from Ernest. The warmer elements of the dry down in Ernest bring a comforting richness that help anchor this a bit for use in the cooler months as well.
Legendary 17th century samurai, Musashi travels through time and space to save his country from the ravages of winter. He meets many eccentric and inspiring characters along the way including presidents, artists, athletes, and even a talking mule named Blue. Not finding exactly what he is looking for and about to give up he stumbles into a bar in 20th century Havana. He sits down at the bar and strikes up a conversation with an author, adventurer and rum aficionado named Ernest. Over a long weekend, many Daiquiris and a few fine cigars they distill the essence of summer. To show his appreciation, Musashi agrees to name their creation after Ernest’s estate on the outskirts of Havana - Finca Vigía. Musashi arrives back in 17th century Japan just in time to save summer and share their creation with the people!

Musashi Origins Series Shave Soap
$25.00

Introducing Musashi an original fragrance from Gentleman's Nod. This is the first LE offering in a new "Origins" series, featuring a fragrance developed around a single note or accord.
The fragrance is inteded to invoke feelings of walking from an isolated coastal region with the fresh zest of citrus and sweetness of Nashi pear. As you move inland and into slightly higher elevations, Jasmine Tea, florals and spice dominate the fragrance. Ultimately as your journey continues into yet higher, forested elevations the fragrance again transforms into a more earthy and woodsy mix reminiscent of the damp forest floor and ancient firs.
We invite you to be immersed in this beautiful fragrance developed around a heart of Jasmine Tea with the accompanying notes stemming from an Asian origin with Japan in particular. Rediscover the ritual!
C4 Base
Cardinal base V.4 or C4 for short is the culmination of over 200 hours of R&D. It is essentially a complete overhaul of the previous Cardinal base. We have looked at every aspect of performance and made improvements across the board. This soap loads extremely fast, builds lather effortlessly, is obscenely slick, and will leave your face feeling soft, supple, and rejuvenated. Be careful…The lather is explosive! Note: This LE version contains Sodium Hyaluronate, the sodium salt of Hyaluronic Acid. It has a much lower molucular weight than HA and will penetrade the Epidermis. Hydrates, plumps, softens from the inside. Meant to be face lathered!

[ERNEST (85)]
Notes of green mango, citrus, and tobacco flower.
Created for adventurers, novelists, rum and cigar aficionado’s of all kinds. We took the inspiration for this fragrance from the Key West and Cuba days. Rumor has it that when attempting to catch a monster fish - sometimes it takes 85 days! Ernest is a bright, fresh, tropical citrus fragrance.
[George 01]
Notes of cedarwood, tobacco, and cherry.
George Washington, POTUS #1, definitively a man’s man represents our darker masculine fragrance. Traditional warm and earthy elements create the base of this deep fragrance.
[JACKIE 42]
Notes of bergamot, sandalwood, and fresh grass.
Jackie was a pioneer in numerous ways and eminently deserving of the Gentleman’s Nod as evidenced by the retiring of #42 across every MLB team! Jackie is the quintessential masculine fragrance. It is light, clean, and fresh.
[VINCENT 11]
Notes of Bergamot, Lavender, Bitter Almond, Cypress, and Vetiver.
Van Gogh was perhaps the most famous artist the world has known. His life and works exemplified the contrast of beauty and tragedy. The inspiration for this complex fragrance was taken from the prolific period of Arles and Saint-Rémy. The number 11 is found in the number of stars in his most beloved work, The Starry Night.

Cooled Summer Edition seriously amps up the Mango and highlights the citrus top in a very unique way. Think mango and citrus carried on a breeze with a touch of sun-kissed skin and the familiar base of warm tobacco and woods. Your tropical summer beach vacation has arrived.
The cooling in this soap is noticeable, but not overbearing in any way. It does last 20-30 minutes following the shave.
C4 is really a complete overhaul of the Cardinal base. It combines the result of countless hours of R&D and input from testers. This base loads extremely fast, lathers easily and offers improvements in performance across the board. Perhaps the most unique quality of this base is that you can build a great lather very quickly or continue to hydrate to build a truly exceptional lather. The lather quality seems to improve with each pass!

Ernest opens up with a bright and uplifting tropical citrus accord. The fragrance transitions with the addition of warm florals and tobacco. As the aroma settles into the skin it finishes with the warm notes of tobacco, vetiver and woods. The perfect fragrance for your next summer adventure.
