Miya Shinma and Kaze — a combination worth experiencing. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the citrus family. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Miya Shinma. From the Impressions collection; released as eau de parfum.
Behind this fragrance stands Japan and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Kaze evolves as a living composition, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The signature of Miya Shinma is clear in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Floral, Whiteflower and Wood. From a family perspective the fragrance belongs to Citrus.
In the first seconds you detect sparkling citrus top notes: Bergamot and Grapefruit. These 2 notes shape a sensation of cool purity that anchors the first impression immediately.
In the middle phase you notice Freesia and Lily of the Valley keeping a velvety rose-iris direction. At drydown level the line is anchored through Cedar and Hinoki, shaping a earthy woody-resinous trail.
The accord architecture rests on these accords: Citrus, Floral and Wood without random overlap. The gender direction is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Taken together Kaze holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood on skin.
