Perfumers
"Zen Essence is a women's Eau de Parfum with a soft, polished floral character. Its opening is bright and lightly fruity, combining citrus facets with grapefruit and pineapple accents. The heart develops into a delicate floral arrangement with freesia, violet, lotus, gardenia, and rose. A quieter base of amber, incense, cedar, musk, and patchouli gives the fragrance warmth and gentle depth. Alternative descriptions emphasize bergamot and jasmine over a powdery iris and musk heart, leading into cedarwood and vanilla. Overall, Zen Essence presents an intimate, restrained interpretation of the Zen style rather than a forceful or heavily projecting fragrance."
