🪨 The Inspiration: The Rock Garden
A quiet temple in Kyoto, surrounded by moss and rocks. Kyoto Temple Moss takes the earthiness of Rōzu and amplifies it. It is damp, green, and silent. It focuses on Vetiver and Patchouli.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Green and Grey
The scent opens with Shiso and Wet Stone. The heart is Green Moss and Matcha. The base is Haitian Vetiver and Patchouli. It smells like the forest floor after rain.
