Description

A sensual scent inspired by Yasunari Kawabataʼs novel, "The House of the Sleeping Beauties"

 

Yawahada is not a perfume that makes a strong statement, but a fragrance that has been created to trigger the unconscious. The refreshing notes of fruit resonate to the nose, then the soft sweetness of milk and rice powder arrives, and lastly, the smooth aroma of sandalwood and musk warms your body. This perfume invites you to a fantastical and sensual world, a world of daydreams, where you can forget about your daily life.

 

Perfumer(s): Hironobu Kobayashi

 

Notes: pear, green note, milk, rice powder, rose, jasmine, musk, sandalwood, amber

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
