Black sesame is known for adding a rich nuttiness to a variety of Korean desserts- black sesame lattes, ice cream, and rice cakes being among the favorites. Though small and unassuming seeds in appearance, their subtle flavor and earthy aroma blend beautifully with sweet dishes, creating a soft and comforting harmony. In Korean, there’s a charming expression used to describe affectionate lovers: “sesame seeds pouring.” It is a metaphor for warmth, sweetness, and love, like the cozy feeling of having a sweet dessert generously topped with black sesame: toasty, sweet, and endearing. Sesame Shower is a fragrance that captures those everyday moments of love. Gentle and sweet, it pairs a richly nutty, subtly earthy black sesame accord with crumbly fresh-baked cookies, leading to a smooth and soft floral heart and a warm, glowing base of amber, sandalwood, and vanilla. A fragrance that radiates safety, comfort, and the innocent side of indulgence, Sesame Shower is a unique and evocative gourmand delight. It features top notes of black sesame and cookie; middle notes of cedarwood, olibanum, vetiver, violet, juniper, muguet and rose; and base notes of musk, vanilla, amber and sandalwood. Sesame Shower is an eau de parfum, edp.
CONCRETED SESAME SHOWER REVIEWS
Reddit: "I absolutely love it. You definitely get the sesame in the top notes, but it’s never sweet like a cookie to my nose. It’s very balanced, and I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever smelled anything similar enough to compare it. Very unique but very wearable."
Reddit: "The nuttiness is delicious, warm, and doesn't smell like artificially sweetened milkshakes. I see this being pretty unisex and perfect for fall & winter."
Fragrantica: "Sesame Shower says it all. I was expecting to like this one the least out of the trio sampler I tried but ended up falling in love. It’s GORGEOUS. This isn’t like smelling fresh or toasted sesame seeds, this is a bit more of a gourmand sesame undertone, think sesame cake or sesame latte! So refreshing, so mouthwatering but not sweet and cloying. The “shower” isn’t traditional sudsy, soapy shower either. It’s so light, and a wonderful your-skin-but-better scent with an extra oomph from the sesame cookie top notes. Absolutely lovely."
Fragrantica: "This is a clean amber base with a hint of gourmand. Sesame shower opens with a sweet nice scent of toasted sesame and vanilla just like a fresh bake cookie. After ~5 mins dryed down to an clean amber scent. I can still find a hint of sweetness if sniff close to the skin. I wish the sesame scent could linger longer. The floral amber base is clean and easy to wear."
Fragrantica: "Warm, bready, toasted sesame. Slight floral powdery sweetness in the background. Gentle and pleasing. There's something synthetic/industrial in this but not in a bad way. A "clean" gourmand is the best way I can describe this."
Fragrantica: "Wow, this one took me on such a rollercoaster, really surprised me. It opens with that toasty black sesame and a hint of cookie, warm and nutty, almost edible but not quite-then shifts into this resinous, slightly fresh and woody floral moment before finally softening into vanilla, amber, and musk. I've been wearing it a lot this summer and Fall, will be great for winter too to layer with some stronger gourmand or ambery profiles. Feels both earthy and sweet, definitely a comfort fragrance."
