Designed with materials sourced from Grasse in the south of France (considered to be the world’s perfume capital), the collection is then made in Japan and transformed into sophisticated scents.
"Love Carrot" is the first and favorite fragrance Chikako has ever created. During her training at perfume school in Grasse, south of France, she was fascinated by the smell of carrot seed oil which is earthy, ethereal sweet floral, leafy green note. Combined with sunny orange, patchouli, sweet vanilla and Indian creamy sandalwood to create a complex sophisticated scent.
"Mimosa" is created with a very high-quality mimosa absolute from the South of France. The scent conjures images and feelings of spring sunshine in the Côte d'Azur, leaving you warm and relaxed.
Wisteria flowers are common in both in Japan and France. Not only is the silhouette of the flowers blooming beautiful, but the fragrance is quite magnificent, as well. "Wisteria Du Japan" is fresh floral, green with a refreshing note. Designer Chikako feels very warm and happy surrounded in this scent.
