Guiding Water

$315.00

Water Yin in Chinese philosophy is associated with introspection and fluid adaptation. The opening of Guiding Water Yin is aquatic and violet, bergamot keeping the brightness measured. Lotus and iris in the heart give the composition a cool, slightly powdery quality that jasmine fills in around, the whole heart reading as translucent rather than opaque. Ambergris in the base adds the saline warmth that the aquatic top note implies, musk giving the finish a skin-close intimacy.

Why We Carry This

Guiding Water Yin is the most contemplative fragrance in The Harmonist collection and the one that clients return to when they want something genuinely quiet. The lotus-iris combination is rare in the niche market, and the ambergris base gives the composition a depth that prevents it from reading as simply fresh.
