“Ishihashiru tarumi no ue no sawarabi no / Moeizuru haru ni narinikeri kamo”
("From the rocks where torrents rush, the bracken shoots―surely, spring has come.")
Clear waters rush over rocks between the trees. Moss clings to the stones, and young shoots emerge. This fragrance captures the freshness of spring with a clean, transparent impression.
The scent opens with a refreshing burst of citrus. It gradually transitions from a bright green tone to a soft, powdery blend of moss and musk.

There are approximately 18,000 species of moss in the world, and Japan―blessed with abundant rain and high humidity―is home to around 1,800 of them. Though moss is commonly seen in Japanese gardens, the act of appreciating moss for its own sake is a uniquely Japanese cultural tradition.
