Launched in 1980 by Shiseido, Murasaki is a Floral Green fragrance that embodies the essence of refined elegance. The composition opens with the fresh green notes of galbanum and bergamot, creating a crisp and invigorating start. This gives way to a lush floral heart, where gardenia and lily-of-the-valley mingle with delicate rose and jasmine, adding layers of sweetness and warmth. The earthy base notes of oakmoss, leather, vetiver, sandalwood, and amber provide depth and longevity, grounding the fragrance in a subtle yet enduring way.
