In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Dragonfly smells like a misty pond in bloom, airy rain notes, soft florals, damp greenery and a starchy rice nuance that gives it an unusual texture. It opens fresh and ozonic, then settles into powdery iris, heliotrope and mossy woods. It suits spring and mild summer weather best, especially if you like aquatic flora…

Reviews →

Kenzo Amour opens with a soft haze of steamed rice and white tea before settling into powdery frangipani and warm vanilla. It sits close to the skin like a cashmere sweater, making it a quiet choice for chilly mornings or quiet evenings at home. Thanaka wood and light incense keep the sweet base grounded.
