Used extensively in the tea ceremony, the camellia (Tsubaki) is said to create a refreshing atmosphere and ward off evil spirits. With a refreshing coolness, light sweetness, and elegant fragrance, Tsubaki Yellow expresses the dignified scent of this Japanese flower that Rikyu loved to use to create a pure atmosphere while entertaining guests with tea.
Rikyū Kaori Series (See All):
Revered as perhaps the greatest tea master of Japan, Sen Rikyū refined the art of tea into its highest artistic expression. One of the most well-known masters of Sakai, Rikyū served as tea master to Japan’s first two great unifiers, Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi. His development of wabi-cha, the “tea of quiet taste,” serves as the basis of Japan’s famous tea ceremony still practiced today over four centuries after his death. An expression of wabi natural simplicity portrayed through fragrance, the Rikyū Kaori series seeks to bring the spirit of Rikyū to Japanese fragrance culture.
