Kedu, nicknamed “the garden of Java” in Indonesia, is a plain bordered by a volcano. Its soil, which has been made fertile by the ash, is sacred. Glossy green palm trees nonchalantly rub shoulders with one-horned rhinoceros, giant flowers in changing colours, prehistoric buffalo and bent-backed pilgrims. Tradition has it that you can purify your soul by throwing sesame seeds – one seed for each passion – into one of the flaming domes. By capturing this unique ingredient alongside a beautifully vibrant grapefruit note, Kedu whisks us away to one of the world's most unique locations. Kedu opens with that grapefruit essence, tart, juicy and bright, fleshed out further with supporting notes of citrus and maté. Peppery green freesia explodes like the heat of the volcano, warming the sesame for a composition both floral and fresh but with a toasted complexity. If the holy site of Kedu represents purification, then the fragrance is the moments thereafter: light, bright, vibrant and free.
