Chinoiserie!

Posted by Unknown on 23rd Jun 2014

I find this to be a highly imaginative take on a Japanese aesthetic. It doesn't feel entirely natural (there's a plastic doll's head note) but that simply adds to the feel of green powdery oddness - a luminous geisha girl makeup in a painting from the 1950s

Though I'd be the last person to discourage either gender from wearing a perfume designed for the opposite sex, I'd say Geisha Green leans more toward feminine (perhaps it depends how it works with your skin, or style)

I find it powdery - a sort of citric/sweet green sherbet over the creamy warmth of aniseed/liquorice, smooth amber and tonka bean.

If it were a colour it would be pale creamy green

A most unusual perfume and one I'd happily wear for dressy, arty evening events in summer.

Excellent longevity and sillage
