Matsuri
A creamy, slightly aquatic floral that opens with pear and ylang — the pear watery and crisp, the ylang lending a banana-yellow cream that sweetens without going gourmand.

By the editors · 2 min readA creamy, slightly aquatic floral that opens with pear and ylang — the pear watery and crisp, the ylang lending a banana-yellow cream that sweetens without going gourmand.
The heart adds plum and clove with peony, the clove a quiet warm-spice tick, the plum keeping the fruit register juicy, the peony lifting the composition into something more obviously bouquet. There is a soft, milky thread running through the centre that blurs flower into fruit.
The base of jasmine, heliotrope, peach and patchouli over cedar leans powdered-creamy, the heliotrope's almond signature rounding the close. Overall the impression is a polished, slightly springtime feminine — fruit-floral with a gentle almond-creamy underside — easy, friendly, designed for daytime rather than statement evenings.
