The name Mushin represents a state of serene focus: calm, tranquility and mental clarity. I would say it definitely does just that, wearing this perfume is incredibly relaxing and has that ever elusive ‘zen’ feeling to it. The scent is composed primarily of an incredibly soft and smooth frankincense which is dry and airy, contrasted by the sweet fruitiness of osmanthus, apricot and peach. Gentle powdery florals and a creamy amber base finish the fragrance beautifully, leaving an gorgeously smooth and subtle sillage behind you. Personally, I feel this scent is too gentle and airy to warrant a full bottle purchase, however I cannot deny its beauty. I will very much enjoy wearing my sample on days where I need a little serenity in my life.
