The blossom-viewing kimono—
disrobed, I'm entwined in
a sea of sashes
- Hisajo Sugita
An ode to magnolia in all of its nuances — radiant and creamy with inflections of verbena honey and distant violet. Rich and sweetly voluptuous, Kimono swathes you in silky ripe florals.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Kimono suits a quiet, self-possessed presence: the kind of person who moves through a room with soft precision, leaving a trail that feels polished rather than loud. Its floral powderiness reads like pressed fabric and pale petals close to the skin.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, Kimono wears comfortably with a restrained hand: one to three sprays are enough to let the magnolia and powdery notes bloom without becoming heavy. On skin it stays smooth and intimate, while in air it opens with a gentle, creamy floral halo.
Who it’s for
For those who like floral perfumes with a powdery, silky texture and a refined, slightly nostalgic character. It will appeal to wearers who enjoy magnolia, soft white florals and elegant scents that feel airy, feminine-leaning and composed rather than sharp or sugary.

d'Annam founder Nick Hoang shaped the brand’s Japan-inspired chapter as part of his broader project of turning personal travel memories into fragrance, while Anh Ngo composed the scent with IFF to translate that brief into a polished, modern floral.
d'Annam’s story
d'Annam builds fragrances as olfactory memoirs of Asian cultures, drawing on founder Nick Hoang’s memories and travels to create scents that feel personal, poetic and rooted in place rather than trend-driven.
Kimono’s concept
Kimono belongs to d'Annam’s Chapter 2: Memories of Japan, a nine-fragrance collection conceived as a tribute to Japanese cultural heritage. The scent uses magnolia, silk, rice flour and powdery notes to evoke the contrasts of the kimono itself: formal, fluid, delicate and enveloping.
Extra info
Kimono is part of d'Annam’s Chapter 2: Memories of Japan, a nine-fragrance collection. The official presentation pairs the scent with a haiku by Hisajo Sugita, reinforcing its literary and cultural framing.
