Luckyscent Videos: Hana no Oto - Di Ser

Here we have Hana no Oto by Di Ser, which is an interesting house from Japan because they are an all-natural house. This means that they basically use essential oils and natural distillations in combination with perfumer’s alcohol. A lot of the times their fragrances are intentionally a little shorter lived; they're supposed to be more meditative and fleeting. But they are quite unique in the way that their fragrances smell. A lot of the time, they have a kind of interesting astringent bitterness to them.

This one in particular showcases the Japanese rose flower, and so it sort of gives you a unique take on rose that's a lot greener, a little bit more bitter, with also oud that they use. But it's not your kind of barnyard animalic oud, just kind of like dark murky woods with a little bit of decay in it. So it's actually really beautiful. After a long day of smelling fragrances all day in here, I like to put this on because it actually is gone by the time I go to bed, and I think that's kind of beautiful.
