Japonica 2026 EDT
Yūgen
Japonica Yūgen is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Yaroslav Simonov. Yūgen opens with Cherry Blossom, Rice, and Rain, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Myrrh, and Green Tea, and dries down to a base of Suede, Salt, and Rice Powder. Japonica's Yūgen carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.
Yūgen is a genuinely interesting, zen-like fragrance that's surprisingly wearable. It's a low-key stunner, perfect for those who prefer their scents subtle and reflective rather than loud and attention-seeking.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Built on aromatic, salty and floral - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.
Best Occasions
This perfume's soft nature and unique clean-yet-aromatic profile make it supremely fitting for casual wear and the office, where it won't overwhelm. It's too subtle for a grand formal event and not robust enough for active sports wear.
