The story behind the bottle.
Peace by Kenzo was launched in 2008 and crafted by perfumer Annick Ménardo. This unisex fragrance opens with a bright mandarin orange note that immediately evokes a sense of freshness and warmth, setting the stage for its heart and base notes. The composition is anchored by woody and musky accords, with cedar providing a grounding element while heliotrope adds a subtle sweetness. Tonka bean and vanilla create a powdery, comforting finish that envelops you in a warm embrace.
This fragrance embodies the essence of Kenzo's distinctive blend of traditional Japanese influences and multi-culturalism, creating an oriental woody scent that is both familiar and sophisticated.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points. The mandarin orange top note fades within an hour, but the powdery musk and woody base notes linger throughout the day, making it perfect for a cozy afternoon or a relaxed evening at home.
