After inviting designers like Kenya Hara (Kenzo Power),... Go
With Yohji Essential, Yohji Yamamoto introduces another expression of his celebrated style."Essential means the beauty of a presence".
A fragrance of elegant simplicity, a chypre and floral blend, sometimes bold, sometimes serene.The fragrance opens with delicate notes of chamomille extract, linden leaves and galbanum resin.This accord is reinforced by an original blend of natural ingredients, sandalwood, patchouli branches, iris root and a hint of amber of plant origin, which gives the fragrance its haunting, sensual aura.Especially tangy, delicious notes of red berries, raspberry tea and pink grapefruit add a sparkling, light-hearted touch. A bouquet of white flowers, including freesia, lily of the valley, jasmin and ylang-ylang enriched with musk and white rose gives Yohji Essential sublime softness and feminity that exquisitely counterpoint the unusual, tangy top notes.
The pure, crystalline glass bottle, in the form of a vial with a tiny raised dot on the side to keep it from rolling, bears the calligraphed Yohji Yamamoto signature.The name Essential is written in red on the bottle. A red tissue paper envelops the bottle set in its plexiglas box.
