IMAGE

"How beautiful the cherry blossoms are, that bloom to the end of the land, as if offer itself to adorn the hair of a beautiful lady or an elegant gentleman." ~ from the Collection of a Myriad leaves (Man'yoshu, 8th century anthology of Japanese poetry)

FRAGRANCE

Starting from a bright pale pink floral tone, the powdery sweetness of the soft flower changes into a moist woody fragance. It may slightly be different from that of occidental cherry blossom image. Tender and yet determined beauty, this pure Japanese "Sakura" fragrance has a resemblance to the japanese traditional scent bag called "nioi-bukuro".
