AMORE

Artist — Ryuichi Sakamoto
Perfumer — Mark Buxton
Medium — Music
Status — Available

»Fingertips fade from the keys of a piano — playing the memories of a love that came, to pass. Love lingers.«

“Amore” appears on Ryuichi Sakamoto's eighth solo album, Beauty (1989) — a composition of emotional resonance and minimalist restraint. Piano notes suspended in silence; warmth tempered by space; melancholy made visible not through excess, but through what is withheld. The fragrance translates this territory — soft florals held at a distance, woods that deepen slowly, incense lingering long after the last key is released.

DELICATE FLORALS · WOODS · INCENSE

MATERIALS
iris, violet, peony, sandalwood, patchouli, oakwood, cedarwood, incense, musk

Each bottle carries its own artwork.
Arrives in its handcrafted box from Hokkaido.
