Tipakorn is a fragrance born from a bridge between two cultures, a tribute to the forgotten history of the Ayutthaya samurai and the silent alliance that has united Thailand and Japan for centuries. Like the rising sun—"the origin of the sun" according to the kanji—Tipakorn shines like an ancient tale, passed down through human memory, through the earth, tea, war, and loyalty.
At the heart of this creation, Tobacco Absolute embodies the Japanese presence in Siam of yesteryear: noble, dense, and rooted. It is a warm and deep material, like the fierce loyalty of these warriors from elsewhere. It intertwines with the peaceful strength of Mate Absolute, a plant with a vegetal scent reminiscent of matcha, evoking calm, restraint, but also endurance. Together, these two notes weave the olfactory portrait of a samurai in exile, proud and disciplined, marching alongside the Siamese armies.
The composition opens with Yuzu, a luminous Japanese fruit with a lively, almost mineral fragrance. It infuses the whole with a vibrant energy, like the morning breeze on a training ground, or the first ray of sunlight hitting the walls of Ayutthaya. Incense balances this light with a spiritual, meditative, almost sacred aura.
The base notes are elegantly anchored in woody and reassuring notes: sandalwood, vetiver, and tonka bean. This trio offers a sober, deep, and balanced trail, like a silent reverence for shared traditions.
Tipakorn is a fragrance of honor and memory. It tells of the rare union of two worlds, the nobility of a gesture shared throughout history. It is a perfume for those who carry within them the elegance of respect, inner light, and the quiet strength of the past reinvented.
