Summer in Kyoto, a sluggish midday – the crinkle of paper packaging cuts through the heavy heat. A small rice cake rests in the hand, soft, slightly sticky – almost like skin. With the first bite, the gently chewy mochi shell gives way, revealing a sweet core of strawberry and doughy, slightly salty red bean paste. A fine dusting of powdered sugar clings to the lip, carrying a faint hint of vanilla. The air is warm, light reflects off the stone-paved streets, and the city feels as if it’s asleep. Everything is still, almost silent – just a soft rustle breaking through the heat.

Strawberry Mochi is part of the Chapter 2: Memories of Japan collection – a tribute to the depth and aesthetic refinement of Japanese culture. Each fragrance in the series captures a distinct facet of this layered world and opens up an olfactory journey through space and time.


Fragrance notes: Strawberry, Glutinous Rice, Red Bean Paste, Brown Sugar, Vanilla

d'Annam

The Vietnamese brand d’Annam brings the richness of Asia to the skin – through fragrances that are not loud, but deeply resonant. Since 2022, founder Nick Hoang has combined Vietnamese heritage with contemporary perfumery. Even the name carries meaning: “An” stands for serenity, “Nam” refers to Vietnam. Each fragrance is a small journey – inspired by rice terraces, teahouses, or traditional festivals. No clichés, no exotic stereotypes, but finely tuned atmospheres. To ensure culture is not just quoted but meaningfully translated, the brand works closely with artists from each respective region. The result is an authentic, layered portrait that approaches each culture with respect and depth.
