Arashiyama | 嵐山 - d'Annam - Bloom Perfumery

Alone, in silence—
the bamboo shoot
becomes a bamboo

- Santōka Taneda

ひとりひっそり

竹になる

A tangled forest of muggy green bamboo. An alluring haze of cut grass and transparent violet drifts across this warm green delight.

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

A quiet hour after rain, when the path is damp and conversation can wait. Arashiyama’s cut-grass haze and translucent violet suit an unhurried presence: attentive, understated, with the warmth of bamboo beneath the wet green surface.

How to wear

Try two sprays on skin in mild spring weather or on a temperate summer morning, allowing the grassy and rain-like facets room to unfold. Moderate diffusion keeps the woody warmth perceptible without overwhelming the greenery. Estimated wear is six to eight hours, varying with skin and weather.

Who it’s for

For those drawn to leafy greens, rain-like accords and understated woods rather than sweetness or dense florals. Its transparent violet and warm bamboo offer a softer alternative to sharply citrus-led freshness.

Release year

2024–2025

Collaborators

For Memories of Japan, the collection that includes Arashiyama, Kazuki Yamamoto served as advisor and Keita Sato curated the poetry. Their credits concern the wider collection’s cultural and literary framework, rather than Arashiyama’s formula.

d'Annam’s story

d’Annam is a Vietnamese fragrance house exploring Asian cultures through scent. Calmness, delight and respect guide its approach, with culturally informed collaboration and a preference for distinct character over sheer volume. Its collections offer personal interpretations of places and traditions rather than claiming to represent them completely.

Arashiyama | 嵐山’s concept

Arashiyama evokes Kyoto’s bamboo grove after rain, combining wet greenery, delicate violet and bamboo wood. Part of Chapter 2: Memories of Japan, it is paired with Santōka Taneda’s poem about a bamboo shoot growing alone in silence—a restrained image of solitude and quiet transformation.

Extra info

The official composition is presented as a single list—bamboo leaves, rain, fresh grass, violet and bamboo wood—not a conventional top, heart and base pyramid. The accompanying poem connects the bamboo imagery with quiet growth rather than a dramatic landscape.
