Blanc Sada is inspired by the real-life story of Sada Abe, a Japanese geisha whose story shook an entire country. For loving to the point of obsession, she killed the man she desired, not out of hatred, but to freeze the moment. This fragrance evokes that suspended moment, when passion verges on madness and beauty conceals the irreparable. A powdery kimono, a body languishing on the tatami mat, a slow caress turned fatality.
The accord opens with a fresh, fragile, aldehydic mist. Then the iris melts into the milky sweetness of rice and lychee, creating a hushed, almost dangerous sensuality. At the base, heliotropin adds an intimate, silky warmth, like a last breath held under silk.
