"A young Japanese man in Kyoto is in love with a Geisha: "I see her silhouette as she gracefully floats in zori. Her obi tied in a simple knot. The nape of her neck is exposed as she turns around the corner at the street lamp. She has no idea that I wait for her passing each night on her way back from the tea house. Her kimono smells of a rich scent; a combination of orange blossoms, vanilla and lilies laced with tobacco. The cypress trees and full moon heighten my senses. At that very moment a gentle waft of burning incense catches my breath from temples nearby. I am in love with her but she can never love me back for it is forbidden to love." Forbidden Love is a natural perfume created by perfumer Olivia Larsen. Inspired by the Geisha tradition, the fragrance features top notes of lily absolute, with hints of white lotus absolute and orange. The heart consists of organic cypress leaf. The base includes tobacco leaf absolute, agarwood, vanilla and benzoin. The fragrance also includes green tea and sake to continue the Japanese theme. Forbidden Love was released in 2015. Forbidden Love was Top Judges Selection Silver Winner at the Artisan Fragrance Salon Awards, San Francisco 2016." - a note from the brand.
