About

Shiso unfurls with a lively tang of bergamot and orange, a familiar fresh burst that quickly gives way to its unusual heart. The star is shiso, a unique herbal note that marries green earthiness with a subtle, peppery freshness, beautifully complemented by the soft, powdery presence of peony. It settles into a tranquil skin scent, anchored by a whisper of creamy sandalwood, creating an aura of serene sophistication.
