"AO indigo
Fig incense
Sapphires turn green"
AO is an olfactory poem from the collection celebrating the Kodo ceremony. It is one of the three Japanese arts of appreciating fragrances where, during a ceremony, one listens to the fragrances that are revealed through burnt woods in order to discover their history and fully appreciate their components. This fragrance transcribes the color of the sky, the sea and the forest at the same time and honors the indigo blue that is widely used in Japanese craftsmanship. It combines mandarin oil with warm, woody notes of fig and myrrh. The result is a fresh and fruity fragrance that reveals a powerful trail as it passes.
Each bento box contains the 50ml bottle as well as a bag spray and its 10ml refill.
The caps, made of italian grained leather, are sewn by hand and can be used as a purse spray for the 10ml refill given with the box.
Floraïku is inspired by Japanese sophistication and follows a poetic approach, close to nature. This French house of perfume is a journey into the heart of the Japanese imaginary, namely into the haikus, short poems which attempt to translate the simplest, yet elusive life experiences. Floraïku creations are like this: short, sensual and overwhelming. Each fragrance is built around an accord inspired by a Japanese ceremony.
