Fragrance information:

Miyako Annayake, unveiled in 2005, sits firmly in the category of a feminine fragrance, drawing from the east and wood families. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.

Expect a moderate sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. Longevity is moderate — not too much, not too little, just right. Produced in Japan, where perfumery has long been elevated to an art form. Miyako Annayake unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The scent of Miyako unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Annayake is evident in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum keeps the depth and body this composition needs.

At the opening of the pyramid you sense cardamom-peppery top notes: Cardamom, Cinnamon and Frankincense.

In the middle phase you meet Cedar, Hinoki, Jasmine, Patchouli, Rose and Sandalwood holding a velvety sandalwood direction.

The olfactory framework is driven by these accords: Balsamic, Gourmet, Floral and Musc without random overlap. Background accords such as Wood, Amber and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. For persistence Middle indicates a stable lasting impression.

From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Spicy, Balsamic, Wood and Whiteflower. The palette also extends to Floral, Ambery, Musk and Gourmet.

Taken together Miyako sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

My aunt keeps it as if it's some sacred thing, I don't even remember how many years she's had it. I never dared to approach and get acquainted with it. But then, suddenly, I feel this mysterious sillage, as if it's woven from fragrant wood that seems to have been steamed or is slightly smoldering at one edge. It's warm, not sticky, and not at all dense, just high-quality. It gives the impression that it's something incredibly valuable 🤔

The bottle is simply gorgeous, and the fragrance - it's something else! Everything is perfectly matched, just delightful!!!

This is just some kind of horror! Stinky gothic in a bottle! I wore this "Miyako" in the autumn wind, when it was cold and dry. On my skin, it evoked such images that it was just terrifying. I imagined an old temple, all made of dark stone, where inside there was only cold and sadness. Candles burn, but the atmosphere is such that even the wind doesn't touch their flame. The benches, of course, are not new, but they still smell of resin. And this incense! There's so much of it here it makes your head spin. Somewhere in the distance, you can hear cinnamon, as if someone on the next street decided to bake a pie. But that doesn't save the situation, it's just a nightmare!

In rainy weather, the scent reminds me of a steamed oak broom. Not in a bad way, of course! It's soft and unobtrusive, lasts wonderfully in warm autumn. An excellent choice for those who appreciate comfort and coziness!!

I recently placed an order, and today I already have it! The scent is simply gorgeous, a little bit wintery. Patchouli is my weakness!!)) I can smell it perfectly. The fragrance is delicate, yet at the same time strong and calming. I really liked it a lot

What an interesting scent! It's definitely not for everyone, but that's its charm. Sometimes thick and rich, then suddenly soft and sweetish, simply feminine. In winter, it warms you up perfectly, and the patchouli plays and shimmers so beautifully. And the bottle is just super - stylish, ribbed, pleasant to hold, doesn't slip out 😍
