About Yohji Yamamoto


Yohji Yamamoto, a revolutionary figure in Japanese fashion, is celebrated for his avant-garde designs that challenge conventional norms of beauty, form, and function. The Tokyo-based designer launched his brand in the early 1970s, quickly becoming a critical and commercial success on the international fashion scene. Known for his masterful drapery, asymmetrical silhouettes, and a predominantly black palette, Yamamoto's work is both intellectual and deeply personal.

His foray into fragrances has been marked by the same approach to design, with scents that are complex, unconventional, and evocative. Yamamoto's perfumes often explore themes of minimalism, nature, and the interplay between masculinity and femininity, extending his aesthetic philosophy into the realm of olfactory art. The fragrances are crafted to complement his fashion line, serving as an invisible layer of his comprehensive design narrative.
