Ormonde Jayne - The 4 Corners Of The Earth - Sakura

With its fairy-tale magic, the Japanese cherry blossom attracts numerous admirers to different regions of the country every year. There, the ephemeral beauty of the sakura, as the cherry blossoms are called in Japanese, is celebrated with the traditional cherry blossom festival Hanami. Ormonde Jayne takes up the impressive splendour of this natural spectacle in its eponymous fragrance Sakura and creates an irresistible and unobtrusive olfactory equivalent of the floating light clouds of blossoms in delicate pink tones. In the spirit of hanami, Ormonde Jaynes Sakura also invites you to pause and trace the effect of its graceful aromas on the senses.

The fragrance:

A carefully chosen selection of precious oils come together in Ormonde Jaynes Sakura to create a harmony whose sensual lightness mirrors the elegant essence of Japanese cherry blossom. As the second fragrance in the house's Four Corners of the Earth Collection, Sakura presents itself as complex and fleeting as a breath of memory to be held before it escapes close reflection. An initial citrusy moment of mandarin and lime joins mild pink pepper and an enigmatic green accord to form Sakura's opening. The heart of its fragrance forms a melange of delicate cherry blossom notes surrounded by almond, powdery violet and vanilla. Sakura fascinates with a composition that presents each of its subtle notes in parallel, without giving preference to any of them. United in this way, creamy soft sandalwood notes, musk, vanilla and amber as Sakura's foundation revisit the gentle essence of the composition. Enigmatic, light, yet confident and sensual, Sakura describes the eternal beauty of cherry blossom, which is also reflected in the colouring and design of its iconic bottle. Contrasted by gold accents, Ormonde Jayne's classic design in the pink of Japanese cherry blossoms echoes the fragrance's delicate, understated elegance and matches Sakura's graceful glow.
