I am thrilled to announce that Tong Ren, my new creation for is now up for pre-order.
Tong Ren is a natural perfume whose intent was to soothe, elate and evoke a general sense of long-desired peace and harmony.
I decided to spruce up Deana’s brief, which included a floral bouquet of Champaca, Narcissus, Rose, Jasmine and Osmanthus, with a playful and sickly citrus accord. Fizzy notes of Blood Orange, Timut Pepper and Ginger, together with a Vanilla overdose elevate the luscious heart and take it to an ambery chypre base of Sage, Oakmoss and Fir Balsam.
I enjoyed every step towards making this fragrance a reality and cannot thank Deana enough for trusting me with this Special Edition and for their flexibility and adaptability.
I am also very touched that my friend .mid.air was chosen for the design of the bottle. Though he hadn’t smelt the perfume whilst making it, his colourful crane splendidly captures the juicy sheen of the fragrance itself.
As it is now released, it is no longer my place to talk about it. I can only hope that you will the same joy wearing it as I did creating it.
Tong Ren - Special Edition - 500 bottles.
