Butōkai — a women's fragrance by Chanson Cosmetics
Butōkai is a women's perfume by the Japanese brand Chanson Cosmetics / シャンソン化粧品, released in 1968.
This release belongs to the early period of the brand's history and has its own page for those interested in classic Japanese perfumery and fragrances from the past.
In the database, Butōkai is classified as a fragrance for women.
The name is recorded in two forms — Butōkai and シャンソン化粧品 Butōkai — so it can be easily searched using either the Latin transliteration or the original Japanese spelling.
The fragrance's character and sillage
The composition's main documented characteristic is its very strong sillage.
This means that Butōkai can make a noticeable impression in its surroundings and leave a distinct fragrant trail, so moderation and gradual testing are especially important when first getting to know it.
The exact concentration of Butōkai, as well as recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing, is not specified in the available data.
A practical way to begin exploring it is to apply a small amount to the skin and assess how it develops over several hours, taking its stated high sillage intensity into account.
Its place in the brand's history
Chanson Cosmetics / シャンソン化粧品 is a Japanese perfume brand that produces women's fragrances, including eau de cologne concentrations.
Butōkai is of interest as a 1968 release: it offers insight into the kinds of perfume products included in the brand's range during an era when Japan's beauty industry was actively developing its own identity.
No information about the perfumer, collection, other concentrations, or similar fragrances for Butōkai is available.
Therefore, this description focuses on the release's confirmed characteristics: its name, brand, year of release, positioning for women, and very strong sillage.
