Eau de Parfum

This scent is based on the lotus flower which is the symbol of Di Ser. This well-balanced perfume reaches its harmony through adding boronia, lotus and rose to a base of kyara and agarwood. The lotus expresses strength and softness as it blossoms forth its beautiful flower wheel from amidst the mud.

The mineral, clay and earth notes at play here land the composition as one of Di Ser’s most earthbound fragrances. This is a truly unique expression of lotus and agarwood (oud). It gives hints of a rich, healing tea. The result is an arresting, imaginative, mysterious and singular work of art.

Hasunoito comes delicately packaged in a special Tsuzure Ori woven pouch within a Kiri wood box. Among the weaving techniques in Japan, Tsuzure Ori is the most traditional. The craftspeople of Tsuzure Ori file jagged lines into the nails of their middle and ring fingers using them as combs to complete their work. The cloth made by this weaving method is considered to be of the highest forms of art. Some cloth is so intricate that one is unable to weave more than a few centimeters a day and a roll of cloth can take several months to complete.

Kiri is the lightest wood in Japan. As moisture does not pass through it easily, it is used to store kimonos and clothes. Since Kiri's thermal conductivity is very low, even if there is a fire, its contents will not be damaged. Because of this, kiri is used as the material for storing valuable objects and musical instruments.

We are honored to offer these incredibly rare natural fragrances from Di Ser at Field & Florist’s downtown Chicago location in the Monadnock Building. (MAP)
