The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1988 by Shiseido, Hana Sakura is a Floral Green fragrance that captures the essence of spring's arrival. The composition opens with fresh and fruity notes, creating an immediate sense of renewal and vitality. As it settles into a white floral heart, accented by green accents, Hana Sakura evokes the delicate beauty of cherry blossoms in full bloom. This fragrance is a proof of Shiseido’s enduring legacy, blending traditional elegance with modern freshness.

How to wear it

Apply Hana Sakura lightly to pulse points — it blooms best close to skin. The fruity top notes are fleeting, but the white floral heart and green undertones linger softly throughout the day.
