About

Gaiac 10 Tokyo opens with a surprisingly intense, almost smoky guaiac wood, quickly settling into a serene blend of warm, dry cedar. A soft, clean musk emerges, enveloping a delicate frankincense, creating an airy but creamy skin-scent experience. It’s a journey from initial potency to a harmonious, understated woody embrace, with hints of subtle sweetness and a 'your skin but better' vibe.
