A focused debrief on your selected samples for Run 1 — the confirmed direction, current formulation, and the refinements toward final. Share this page directly with the perfumer.
A dry, sunlit fabric scent — airy, slightly metallic, with a powdery texture and quiet depth. AIR is the medium that surrounds the fabric: breath, the air through an open window, the room itself.
“A crisp, green-tinged dryness that feels like fabric lifted into open air — cool, composed, and quietly sharpened by light.”
Locked. Please carry the current AIR (2X) build into the launch formulation as-is; no further reformulation required. We will confirm ordering quantities separately.
A defined line — dry, clear, intentional. A quiet, focused space of wood, paper and air; the most legible scent in the line.
Read was an impressive sample to evaluate — a mature, beautifully balanced masculine harmony. The heart-to-base transition (orris, olibanum, sandalwood, ambroxan) feels remarkably stable and highly refined.
To give this solid structure more of Read’s poetic identity — personal contemplation, the tactile mood of paper and books — and to lift the somewhat conventional citrus opening into something younger and more contemporary, a few refined adjustments:
Thank you as always — we are truly looking forward to experiencing the next version.
We would like to request the final samples for AIR and READ. Please submit at the concentration you judge best for the composition — we are open to your recommendation rather than a fixed 20%. Kindly note the intended concentration with each sample.
AIR · Eau de Toilette (United Arrows edition): for the Japan-exclusive EdT, could a lower concentration (~10%) of the current AIR formula serve as the Eau de Toilette, or would a dedicated EdT reformulation be needed to hold balance and projection at the lighter strength? Please advise.
