A fragrance from the collection of the French House Parfums MDCI Cio Cio San MDCI. The fragrance is named after the main heroine of the opera by Giacomo Puccini, the young geisha Cio-Cio-San - "Madame Butterfly".

Cio Cio San MDCI Parfums - fragrance for women, belongs to the group of oriental fragrances. Cio Cio San was launched in 2015 by perfumer Cecile Zarokian. Cecile Zarokian has already collaborated with Claude Marchal, owner of MDCI, to create Nuit Andalouse.

The composition includes notes: yuzu, lemon, sparkling highlights of ginger, bittersweet grapefruit, delicate and at the same time juicy cherry blossom, peony, lychee, tea, guaiac (guaiac wood), white cedar and musk. It seems that these are all shades that should be in the little house of Cio-Cio-San. The fragrance feels tenderness and awe, soulfulness and love. All those feelings that the small, fragile and at the same time strong Cio-Cio-San experienced.



Claude Marshall is an admirer of Japanese art, and at some time collected old Japanese prints on the tree. Therefore, the Japanese theme became the basis of the new composition. Perhaps the created fragrance sounds exactly as it is understood in Western culture, but nevertheless, it reminds of the Far East, of the country in which a little young geisha lived - spring landscapes with cherry blossoms, famous Japanese gardens, silk kimonos, tea houses , ...

While enjoying the scent of Cio Cio San MDCI Parfums, do not think about the tragic denouement of this story, just think about the beautiful Cio-Cio-San, who is still experiencing her happy days with her lover, and then, in anticipation of happiness, awaits his return. It is these happy and exciting moments that the aroma opens for us - a blooming garden with a heady scent of peonies, a scent of cherry blossom, a delicate and sweet aroma of lychee.

Shades of tea add some thoughtfulness to the aroma. The perfume is completed with a soft trail of spicy notes of guaiac wood, shades of mighty, warm cedar and exciting musk.

The scent is weightless and pure, like a tear. With every breath you feel the melody of calm and quiet happiness. It has an indescribable feeling of happiness and harmony.
