The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Hyakutake by Tiziana Terenzi was launched in 2023 and crafted by Paolo Terenzi. This fragrance opens with a sharp burst of eucalyptus and cardamom, creating an aromatic tension that is both invigorating and intriguing. The heart of the scent features calabrian bergamot and lemon, adding a bright citrus freshness that cuts through the initial spiciness. As it settles into its woody base notes, hyakutake reveals layers of orris, ambergris, incense, larch, sandalwood, vetiver, tobacco, and musk, creating a warm and earthy depth that is both grounding and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply Hyakutake in light layers as the initial aromatic notes are quite strong. The citrus freshness fades quickly, so a second application can enhance the longevity of these top notes. Allow it to settle for an hour before heading out — this fragrance is best experienced close to skin rather than across a room.
