Who each suits
Style’s sweet vanilla, warm cardamom, mango fruitiness and powdery iris appeal to wearers who enjoy a soft, sweet‑spicy floral‑woody blend, suitable for both day and evening wear. Ginza’s bright citrus‑fruit notes (pineapple, tangerine, pomegranate), exotic ylang‑ylang, sandalwood and hinoki wood attract those who prefer a fresher, more vibrant, slightly oriental scent, often favored for warmer weather or lively settings.
