Yūgen

Yūgen by Japonica is a Floral Green fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Yūgen was launched in 2026. The nose behind this fragrance is Yaroslav Simonov. Top notes are Steam Accord, Cherry Blossom and Rice; middle notes are Genmaicha, Jasmine and Myrrh; base notes are Sea Salt, Rice Powder and White Suede. Yūgen by Japonica is a green, floral and softly powdery fragrance built around Japanese-inspired accords. The composition opens with delicate cherry blossom supported by impressions of steam and rice, suggesting a gentle, airy warmth rather than sharp citrus. In the heart, genmaicha (roasted rice green tea) blends with jasmine and a touch of myrrh, adding a nuanced herbal-floral character with a lightly resinous undertone. The base features sea salt, rice powder and white suede, giving the scent a smooth, mineral and powdery finish that emphasizes texture and atmosphere over sweetness.
