Launched in 2025 by Ikiryo, Carpe Paradisum is a composition that balances the warmth of amber and spicy notes with the freshness of citrus and white florals. Perfumer Vincent of Dreamhouse crafts an accord where the initial burst of bright citrus and fresh spices quickly gives way to a heart of delicate white flowers. The base notes of warm spice and rich amber ground this fragrance, creating a harmonious blend that feels both uplifting and comforting.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance lightly — the citrus top notes are bright but fade quickly. The warmth of the amber base emerges after about an hour, so give it time to develop on your skin. It pairs well with layering for a more complex scent profile.
