Myth of Saso by Shiseido captures the spirit of eighties perfumery with a surprisingly delicate, Japanese-style restraint. The fragrance opens with a sharp burst of aldehydes and bright citruses, which quickly melts into a dense heart of yellow florals led by ylang-ylang and exotic osmanthus. Unlike many loud fragrances of its era, it settles into a smooth, skin-hugging warmth driven by sandalwood and a rich, slightly animalic castoreum base. It is a striking choice for cool autumn evenings or formal spring gatherings when you want something sophisticated yet uncommon. If you appreciate vintage florals with a clean yet animalic backbone, this is well worth seeking out as a decant or a full bottle. Show less
