Created in collaboration with the writer Unochiyo, the fragrance reflects her deeply personal affection for sakura, which she considered the very image of “flower.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInspired by the Ancient Usuzumi Cherry Tree\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnochiyo’s encounter with the venerable Usuzumi no Sakura in Neo Village, Gifu Prefecture, left a lasting impression. Once standing on the brink of decline, the ancient tree was restored through collective effort and continues to bloom fully each spring, drawing visitors to the mountain village. This sense of renewal and perseverance is gently woven into the character of the fragrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA Calm and Contemplative Sakura Impression\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aroma evokes cherry blossoms that continue to bloom with grace even in great age—calm, soft, and quietly luminous.
