The stillness of a Japanese rock garden after rain. Yuzu and water notes channeled through a lens of absolute clarity.
Era & Context
Modern
Brought yuzu — until then virtually unknown in Western perfumery — to a global audience. Alongside Acqua di Gio, defined the 1990s aquatic masculine archetype, but with a distinctly Japanese restraint and transparency that set it apart from Mediterranean freshness.
