Japanese Cherry Blossom is described as "An intensely feminine interpretation of the fragrance you love, uniquely nuanced in a Perfume form.

Mid notes: Japanese Cherry Blossom, Golden Butterfly Lily, Kyoto Rose Petals, Delicate Mimosa, Hedione

Base notes: Vanilla Rice, Imperial Amber, Silk Musk, Cinnamon Incense, Himalayan Cedarwood, Creamy Sandalwood...

Sensual Amber is described as a rich scent whose vanilla is steeped in delicious spices with sensual, dark patchouli and velvet floral absolutes.

  • Top: Bergamot, Wild Berries, Succulent Plum
  • Mid: White Rose, Orange Flower, Lotus Petals, Iris, Star Anise
  • Dry: Warm Amber, Creamy Sandalwood, Vanilla, Patchouli, Praline, Musk

  • Warm Vanilla Sugar has the following notes:

  • Top: Italian Bergamot, Asian Mandarin, White Jasmin Absolute, Turkish Rose Absolute
  • Mid: Patchouli Indonesia, Amber Brazil, Osmanthus Absolute
  • Dry: Heliotrope, Coconut Absolute, Sandalwood, Guaiacwood, Incense accord, Musk

    I recently purchased the Sensual Amber at $7.50 USD for one half-ounce glass bottle. The scent is initially quite potent and unpleasantly sweet when smelled in very close proximity (a few inches from the skin). However, it softens within a few minutes and becomes something divine. The smell is delicate--warm and sweet, with a far weakened potency (a good thing). While I cannot consider this an unusual scent, it is certainly pleasant: inviting and, as its name suggests, sensual. Romantic and perfect for the cooler seasons.
