Monolith Aftershave Nourishing Splash 100ml

Fir Balsam · Cedarwood · Frankincense · Elemi · Ginger · Jasmine · White Musk · Osmanthus

All the molecules we perceive as scent are made of the same elements. Once upon a time, atoms of hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and other elements were drifting through space. Now they swirl through the woods, flowers and spices of Earth.

Every species on our planet and every fragrance we smell is the product of a cosmic odyssey that took billions of years to complete. The chemical compounds that create scent, such as terpenes, esters, or aldehydes, are Earthly compositions of matter. You could say, in effect, they are the universe speaking via perfume.

So when we smell a fragrance, we are but the cosmos experiencing itself, through the invisible poetry of scent.

This is Monolith, the echo of something left behind. A composition that captures the strange pull of the unknown.

Fir Balsam Absolute is one of my favorite aromatic ingredients. At last, it finds its place here. It is the heart of the piece, with its rich coniferous scent and irresistible warmth. It is joined by the soft, dry woodiness of Virginia Cedarwood, grounding the blend with subtle strength.

Frankincense Absolute and Essential Oil impart their timeless resinous spicy scent. Mysterious, smoky, and gently luminous. Elemi lifts this spicy note with its fresh, citrusy edge, while Ginger cuts through at the top with a sharper note.

There are fleeting hints of life. Osmanthus, which has a delicate scent of leather and apricot, and Jasmine, which has a chilly and glass-like character.

Lastly, a precisely balanced composition of White Musks wraps the fragrance in a weightless veil. Silent, persistent, and always just out of reach.

The Nourishing Splash

The brand new Nourishing Splash was developed primarily to better serve our loyal customers abroad. The gentlemen who prefer a splash over a balm and who unfortunately did not have access to our alcohol-based lotion. It is also suitable for anyone who cares about the well-being of their skin and at the same time wants a flawless olfactory experience.

It has been carefully designed to provide an incredible post-shave experience, without the stickiness that is often characteristic of non-alcoholic splashes. This formula includes many of the same principles and benefits as the Invigorating Splash. Due to its known astringent properties, witch hazel takes a prominent role. It also contains all other essential ingredients such as aloe, glycerin, betaine, sodium lactate, silk, rose water and chamomile water, as well as the added vegetable collagen and panthenol, better known as provitamin B5, for a truly nourishing experience.

Recommended Use

When you are finished shaving, wash your face thoroughly with cold water to ensure loose hairs and excess lather are removed.

Shake the bottle well and open it. Pour a teaspoon amount of aftershave into one palm and pat it over to the other. Gently apply the aftershave to recently shaved areas of the face, neck or body. Avoid contact with eyes and other mucous membranes.

Massage the product in a downward motion, making sure you get an even coverage. Do not rinse with water, your skin will soon absorb the product and do its work.
