Great, I'm only 21 so this fragrance is a bit before my time but it's a beautiful scent great feeling after a nice wet shave would highly recommend it to anyone who likes strong scents fits in well with all my other classic aftershaves, an absolute classic. I remember as a kid going into the bathroom and having a contest to decide which of his aftershaves I liked best.

The advertisements were considered humorous as they played to a “male fantasy of a world where women find them irresistible. Hai Karate opens up with Bergamot then moves onto jasmine and benzoin and finishes the scent with smooth musk with sandalwood. Even so, guys were wearing HK and Canoe and the old-style English Leather - sometimes your eyes would start streaming when you walked into the locker room just from the fumes.

Okay, I bought a full vintage bottle of Hai Karate after shave as a gag, or maybe less of a gag as curiosity.
This was probably always the intent; to capitalize on the popularity of Canoe and so creating a budget version that would be popular with young men for the purpose of attracting women.

In contrast, the dry down has a Brut 33 feel to it, that watered-down quality but nice all the same.
