“I adore Astier de Villatte. The incense, the perfume, the storytelling, the history and the candles. It's the only house that'll get two mentions in this collection. Honestly choosing between most scents would be splitting hairs, imo they're that consistent. Instead I'll put forth my two favorites. First of which is Nara. I'll let them tell the story better than I possibly could.
Nara, a tranquil little Japanese town, is home to numerous beautiful temples and shrines, and a park famous for its free-roaming deer. A welcome respite awaits at the Nara Hotel, a century-old building with irresistible charm. Lose yourself with delight in the town's winding alleyways. An exquisite scent of sandalwood, warm and comforting, fills the air, enriched with a hint of sweet and sensual jasmine. Contains essences of Amyris Sandalwood, Sambac Jasmine, Ginger Root, Cashmeran, and Amberwood.”
