Description
Description
First Dream of The Year captures hatsuyume: the first dream of the New Year in Japanese tradition, said to set the tone for the months ahead. Perfumer Aliénor Massenet built it as a metaphorical blank page under Mount Fuji at dawn: bright grapefruit opening into orange blossom over a quiet iris base. Part of Floraiku's founding 2017 haiku collection, it's one of the house's lightest, most sunrise-optimistic scents.
