Light of Bangkok by Parfums Dusita is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Light of Bangkok was launched in 2026. The nose behind this fragrance is Pissara Umavijani. Top notes are Lemongrass, Bergamot and Clary Sage; middle notes are Jasmine, Orris Root and Ylang-Ylang; base notes are Sandalwood, Musk and Vetiver. The Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok and Parfums Dusita present Light of Bangkok, an Eau de Parfum created to celebrate the renowned Hotel’s 150th anniversary. Light of Bangkok is a woody aromatic scent with light floral touches and a brightly fresh, invigorating aura that feels universally inviting.“One of my most vivid childhood memories is admiring the Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok while walking with my father alongside the Chao Phraya River. I was deeply honored to have been entrusted with the creation of LIGHT OF BANGKOK, an Eau de Parfum that marks the 150th anniversary of this majestic Hotel. I envisioned the scent as a reflection of its elegance and hospitality, drawing inspiration from its graceful architecture and its signature color, Celadon Green. With that serene hue in mind, I paired sparkling lemongrass, a plant treasured in Thailand, with velvety orris butter, a cornerstone of French perfumery. The luminous freshness is amplified by bergamot and clary sage, the floral heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang pays further tribute to Thailand, while the woody, airy base comprises sandalwood, vetiver and musk.” - Pissara Umavijani

A Signature Fragrance

Sandalwood
Sandalwood, sourced from the heartwood of trees native to India and Indonesia, carries a rich, creamy aroma that is both smooth and slightly sweet. Its scent is often described as warm and woody, with a powdery undertone that adds depth and complexity to any composition.

Musk
Musk, once sourced from the musk deer and now often recreated synthetically, offers an earthy, slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of skin. Its versatility allows it to blend seamlessly into various fragrance families, from oriental to woody, enhancing their depth without overpowering them.

Vetiver
Vetiver, harvested from the roots of a tall grass native to India, exudes an earthy aroma that is both dry and slightly sweet. Its scent profile ranges from smoky and leathery to green and fresh, depending on how it’s distilled and aged. This versatile note thrives in tropical climates and has long been cherished for its grounding qualities.
