"It was in Japan one spring day that I came across the astonishing cherry blossom. Tiny and fragile though it is, it nevertheless releases a perfume with incredible presence evoking the breathtaking landscape of thousands of cherry trees in bloom. The subtle, irresistible scent followed me everywhere. With Sakura, I wanted to pay tribute to it by interpreting its gently lingering, tender perfume with rosy nuances."
François Demachy, Dior Perfumer-Creator
