"The Samurai seize his sword with heart for the nation, Enemies attack from all directions, Out for battle to protect his second land, The Sun leads the crew on demand. From the history of Thailand since the time of Ayutthaya, the Japanese and Siamese have a very close relation in both trading and diplomatic aspects, which then a Japanese village was built for the expats. The Japanese often supported Siam during war by sending their volunteer soldiers. There was a samurai named “Yamada Nagamasa”, which is the most well-known japanese in Thai history. He was promoted to one of the highest of Siam’s military rank, and at the same time, was also the leader of the Japanese. This history of the relationship between Thailand and Japan has inspired us to formulate a mixture of Thai and Japanese in our product.“Tipakorn” means “Sun” to represent Japan. The word “Japan” spelled in Japanese Kanji letters means “The origin of the sun”. We choose the fresh scent of yuzu orange, which can grow well in the warm, humid climate and seashores, to represent Japan and be the heart of this perfume. The other chosen aroma in this perfume is “Matcha”, which reflects calmness and pride, together with bravery. Matcha or japanese green tea is well-known for the diligence of the japanese during its process. The scents representing Thailand mixed in this formula are from Nium-Horm (Strobilanthes nivea Bremek), which is a rare aromatic plant, and also smoked wood aroma. The combination of these ingredients represents the “Samurai of Siam”, the soldier who fought side-by-side with the Siamese in history." - a note from the brand.
