This release is distilled from fresh lotus flowers harvested at the beginning of summer this year in China, when the first full blooms begin to open with seasonal consistency and clarity. Each distillation is made from newly gathered material, capturing the flower at its most active aromatic stage—neither pre-bloom bud nor late-season decline, but the brief window where lotus exists in full expression.
Low-temperature hydrodistillation is used to preserve that exact state without forcing extraction or distortion. What results is a quiet, structured lotus profile: cool aquatic floral air, soft green stem-water nuance, and a clean mineral brightness that feels naturally unforced. The aroma does not project with weight or intensity; it unfolds with restraint, maintaining the flower’s inherent transparency.
As it develops, a gentle creamy floral core appears, supported by faint tea-like undertones and a delicate watery sweetness that remains deliberately subtle. There is no embellishment or reinterpretation—only the preserved character of fresh seasonal lotus, held in a form that allows it to be experienced slowly and without interruption.
This is lotus in its living moment: brief, precise, and fully dependent on the season that produced it.
