Wabisabi

Wabisabi

Wabisabi contrasts a sparkling mix of bergamot, lime and pear with the unexpected bite of pink pepper and wasabi, before unfolding into a lush, resin-kissed floral heart. It settles in a soft trail of vanilla, cinnamon and musk, where spicy green edges blur into a warm, gently sweet glow.

Scent Development and Character

A bright, quirky opening of bergamot, lime and pear dusted with pink pepper and a sharp wasabi accent leads into a textured floral heart of jasmine, jasmine sambac, Turkish rose, ylang-ylang, geranium and resinous elemi. As it dries down, the fragrance softens into a warm, slightly sweet base of vanilla, cinnamon and clean musk, balancing its spicy-green edge with a smooth, creamy glow.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Its bright citrus, spice and wasabi accord makes Wabisabi well-suited to creative daytime wear, artful casual outfits and distinctive evening looks rather than formal or very conservative settings. One to two sprays create a noticeable, refined aura; in cooler weather it can be worn more generously, while in heat its sharp green facets become more prominent. Best suited to spring and autumn, when its mix of fresh citrus, spicy-green wasabi and warm vanilla-spice feels balanced; in mild winter it can offer a cozy yet vivid character, while in very hot summer its wasabi and spice facets may become quite prominent. Sillage is Projection appears to be moderate, forming a noticeable but not overpowering aura in the first hours before softening to a more intimate trail. Longevity is Estimated longevity is around 6–8 hours on skin, with brighter top notes fading after the first couple of hours while the floral-vanillic base persists close to the skin.
