A light, cheerful fruity-floral fragrance with a soft woody depth, Ginza presents a delicate blend of pomegranate, freesia, jasmine, magnolia, and patchouli. It opens with a vibrant, juicy pomegranate that carries a subtle sweet and slightly tart freshness, balanced by a soft spicy note of pink pepper. The heart features a well-integrated floral trio of freesia, jasmine, and magnolia, evoking the softness of pink blossoms and a light, airy texture. The drydown reveals a gentle patchouli-sandalwood base, adding a hint of depth without overpowering the overall gauzy, elegant character. Its performance is generally moderate, with noticeable sillage that remains subtle but detectable for several hours, particularly on warm skin. The scent is unobtrusive, refined, and suited for daywear — ideal for spring and summer, with a quiet but appealing presence that turns heads without being overwhelming. Compared to similar scents like Idôle or La Vie Est Belle, it holds a quieter, more nuanced sweetness, avoiding heavy cloying notes and instead offering a fresher, minimalist take on feminine perfumery.
