Tao Yuanming: The Earthbound Soul
For Tao Yuanming, the fields were not a place to observe from afar—they were his life, his spirit. The land was not just his livelihood, but his true home.
This fragrance, grounded in the earthy scent of cliff cypress, is layered with Kyara agarwood, nutgrass, and angelica. Its bittersweet tones mirror Tao’s simple, contented life, free of the desires that burden so many. The crisp, clean scent of chrysanthemum and chamomile shines through, while ginseng and mugwort add a warm, familiar touch of the soil.
The chrysanthemums reflect his pure character, and the land itself was always his true resting place.
At times, I feel a pang of sorrow for his unwavering commitment to a life of simplicity. Yet, more often, I find myself envying his ability to find joy in life’s quiet moments. It is not just a mindset—it is a rare and precious gift.
