A fragrance that honours women's emotions as the source of their strength

Shiseido Ginza Intense Eau de Parfum is a celebration of the power inherent in emotions and a woman's ability to turn those emotions into a source of strength. This seductive amber and floral composition is just like a woman. Full of contrasts, but with the perfect balance between fragility and strength. 

This concept is also embodied in the visually striking bottle, designed by Constance Guisset. Symbolically, it is intersected by the shape of a samurai dagger, the transparent glass contrasts with the red colour that personifies passion and energy. It also illustrates the duality of women, both fiercely passionate and icily calm.

Composition of the fragrance
When you first smell it, you will notice the fruity notes of blackcurrant leaves. Then the middle note of the fragrance is revealed in the form of intoxicating Damask rose. The fiery passion is then enhanced by juicy, gourmand blackcurrant and sensual woody notes. Addictive patchouli and warming vanilla complete the fragrance.

Story of the fragrance
Shiseido Ginza Intense was created by Karine Dubreuil and Maia Lernout from the perfume house Takasago. They took inspiration from the Japanese practices of Ikebana and Kodo, artfully combining modern technique with ancient tradition.

Ikebana is artistic flower arranging that focuses on expressing natural beauty and harmony through the thoughtful arrangement of flowers. Kodo, on the other hand, sharpens the senses by training perception and discerning the subtle nuances of scents. Shiseido Ginza Intense Eau de Parfum thus combines carefully selected essences and brings a new dimension to fragrance.
