Exclusive perfume Takashimaya, which was created for luxury store Takashimaya New York, has been presented. It was inspired by one of the boutiques, named \"Tea House\", where tea and accompanying products, tea pots and decorative tea cups are being sold. Perfumer Neil Morris found inspiration for composition of Takashimaya New York in Japanese garden in the Fine Arts Museum, Boston. Storm was setting in and it started raining at that time, and wind and fog in touch with flowers and herbs of Japanese garden illusory created a new fragrant challenge for the creator. After rain, sun dried water out and accentuated aromas of plum blossom and bamboo. Perfumer Neil Morris wanted to highlight beauty and peacefulness of Japanese cultures with a hint of style and sophistication of Fifth Avenue, New York, in his new perfume. The composition incorporates fruity top notes of black currant, mandarin and bergamot. Heart blooms with plum blossom, jasmine tea, Japanese cherry blossom, bamboo, orchid and daffodil, while the base adds a woody union of cedar and oak with Tonka and iris root. Takashimaya is available in amount of 60 ml (2.0 fl.oz) in a rectangular glass bottle, with cylindrical silver stopper. This edition, as well as the 8 preceding versions, has been presented as unisex.
