Gentle King, scented creation dedicated to prairie lions, a post-impressionist depiction of the beauty of wildness on the African prairies, symbolizing proud lions, expresses the reverence to the Gentle King and introspection for human behaviors.During a private journey on the Serengeti prairies, the perfumer witnessed, for the very first time, a lion woke up from a nap. Its languid yawn with bloody jaws opened up struck him vehemently. Such an instinctive vibration swelled in him that only with a perfume could he express this unspeakable feeling. Compared to the proud and independent lions, human beings are more like blindly conforming gnus, yet regarding themselves as kings while neglecting their influences on the world. A tribute to and symbol of the prairie lions, this perfume expresses the genuine reverence to the Gentle King.On the boundless prairie, sunlight crosses the skyline. It is the first olfactive impression. The aldehyde in the head dances with black pepper and Sichuan pepper to bring about abundant smell of hay. Invigorating black chestnut carries a touch of tropical reminiscence in the vastness. As the head notes subside, the sensorial focus becomes lions, a projection of the perfumer blending gentleness and wildness. The combination of violet leaves and iris, accompanied by Tonka beans, speaks out the neutral softness and elegance, while in the base unfolds the royal fortitude created by leather and animalic Indonesian oud.
