NORWEGIAN WOOD
on HARUKI MURAKAMI

LITERATURE

»Summer, Fall, And Winter. Innocence, Love, And Loss.«

╸

Published in 1987, Norwegian Wood launched Haruki Murakami to literary stardom in Japan. The novel follows a young man's journey through love, loss, and sexuality in 1960s Tokyo—a coming-of-age shaped by cultural upheaval and intimate longing. Each season carries its own weight: summer's innocence, fall's deepening, winter's quiet grief. The fragrance is an olfactive translation of this passage through time—clean and sheer, then woody, then the smoke of incense lingering after someone has left the room.

In 1978, Haruki Murakami was twenty-nine and running a jazz bar in downtown Tokyo. One April day, the impulse to write a novel came to him suddenly while watching a baseball game. That first novel, Hear the Wind Sing, won a new writers’ award and was published the following year. More followed, including A Wild Sheep Chase and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, but it was Norwegian Wood, published in 1987, which turned Murakami from a writer into a phenomenon. His books became bestsellers, were translated into many languages, including English, and the door was thrown wide open to Murakami’s unique and addictive fictional universe.
