Rising Sun

The sun peeking over the horizon, casting long shadows on a deserted beach where the air is crisp with sea mist and the scent of plums lingers in the breeze.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019 by Shiseido, Rising Sun is a Floral Fruity fragrance crafted by Jean Jacques. This composition opens with sea and mineral notes that evoke the freshness of an early morning by the shore, leading to a heart of lemon and ylang-ylang that adds a bright, floral sweetness. The base notes of cashmeran, coconut, musk, jasmine, rose, and mirabelle plum create a warm, enveloping finish that feels both grounding and uplifting.

How to wear it

Rising Sun has a bright opening that fades within an hour, so apply it early for maximum impact. The warm base notes will last longer, but this fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room. It’s perfect for daytime wear when you want a fresh, uplifting scent.
