Club Tokyo

Club Tokyo by Roads is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women and men. Club Tokyo was launched in 2018. Top notes are Pear and Angelica; middle notes are Jasmine and Honeysuckle; base notes are Vetiver and Amber. ROADS of ASIA is a collection of 4 fragrances created in collaboration with a team of perfumers at Intertrade Group, leader in the International development of concepts for contemporary research perfumery.“To launch a collection that authentically breathes the notes of the Asian world, which I personally deeply love, we decided to work solely with Asian perfumers,” explains Celso Fadelli, President and Fragrance Curator of Intertrade Group. “We thought that these talented artists would best interpret the brief, conveying a unique sensibility and taste, while giving coherence to the project. Every detail of this venture reveals a particular attention to the symbolism and culture of the Asian continent; from the colour of the bottle to the fragrances’ olfactory notes, names, and artistic images; all brought together by the sensibility of Danielle Ryan.”This new collection interprets the cultural and artistic influences of the Asian continent. Every fragrance is inspired by a different country that is not directly disclosed, yet is underlying its theme, image, and olfactory composition. The perfume bottles are red, colour that in the Asian culture signifies joy, purity, life, sacredness, and prosperity.In the Orient, red is the colour of a bride’s dress, while in China the “red knot” is passed on from generation to generation as a symbol of luck and protection against bad fates. In Japan it is the colour of sacredness, light, and completeness. The four fragrances are an olfactory reflection of the Orient’s traditions, without relinquishing their contemporary taste. Flower notes are their main protagonists: jasmine, popular since ancient times and used by many Chinese women as a hair ornament or for herbal infusions; peony, with its delicate and fresh accents, representing prosperity, joy, peace, health, and valour; roses and orange blossoms, which are common and vastly appreciated across the East. In India, women traditionally use a seductive ointment that contains rose and jasmine. Citrus fruits also stand out within the Asian olfactory world.Despite common associations of these with the sun of the Mediterranean, citrus fruits originate from China and Japan, with interesting facets brought by delicate woods and spices. Danielle Ryan personally curated the choice of the four artworks for new ASIA edition, as she previously did for the other ROADS collections, CORE and AFRICA. These artworks are visually different, expressing the unique personality of each of the perfumes.CLUB TOKYO – Intriguing and filled with energy, Club Tokyo reflects Tokyo’s unique artistic expression. This enchanting fragrance has a delightful and bright debut with a nuance of Asian pear and angelica seeds; a vibrant twist of honeysuckle and jasmine; and a bold background with accents of amber and vetiver.The artwork on its packaging is a shot by Angela Di Finizio. Things, creatures, landscape, almost anything can give origin to human intention; even what is abstract or inanimate. Venturing into photography means exploring something or someone; sparking this fascinating and meaningful exchange.
