Shiseido Basala hits the skin with a sharp, bracing rush of green rosemary, clary sage, and bitter artemisia. It is a dry, red-hued chypre from the early nineties that completely bypasses the clean, aquatic trends of its era. As the initial herbal blast simmers down, a warm wave of cinnamon and carnation emerges, bringing a dusty, fire-warmed depth. The base settles into a heavy, mossy leather anchored by patchouli and labdanum, creating a comforting masculine shield. This is a complex scent for cold autumn nights and formal wool coats. It is a bottle worth hunting down for collectors who value bold, mossy chypres with a distinct Japanese aesthetic of structured restraint. Show less

Top notes are Ylang-Ylang, Orange Blossom, Narcissus, Neroli, Bergamot and Basil; middle notes are Honey, Tuberose, Carnation, Jasmine, Bulgarian Rose, Orris Root and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Benzoin, Sandalwood, Amber, Musk, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Heliotrope, Oakmoss, Cedar and Patchouli.

From the way people describe wearing it, this comes across best as ideal for cold winter nights; a lush oriental; soft amber vanilla drydown. The trade-off is that it may feel sweeter and heavier than some people expect; heavy and not for everyone; newer versions lack original vintage depth depending on taste and setting.
