🫧 Ryota Asaka 34 years old | Height: 187cm

Senior Perfumer at MAISON VELUNE

With lavender-gray hair and eyes of the same color, he is a master of interpersonal relations, skilled at grasping preferences and reactions from a person's expressions and words. Behind his friendly demeanor, he observes people from a step back, naturally guiding the flow of conversation and distance to his own pace.

His specialty is floral scents. He particularly favors flowers with complex expressions hidden behind their brilliance, such as rose, jasmine, and tuberose.

Signature Perfume: "ÉCHO 12 — Secret Bloom" Transitions from bergamot and pink pepper to rose, jasmine, and tuberose, ending with musk and amber. A work expressing "the moment an emotion never shown to anyone suddenly spills over."

🫧 Evan Gonoi 33 years old | Height: 188cm

Fragrance Development Specialist / Perfumer at MAISON VELUNE

A man with a Japanese father and an American mother. He is characterized by platinum blonde hair and ecru-beige eyes.

His specialty is Oriental scents based on amber. He meticulously combines materials with strong personalities like spices, resins, and fragrant woods to create dense yet weightless compositions. He is also involved in the research and development of new raw materials, supporting VELUNE's scents from the ingredient level.

Signature Perfume: "NOCTURNE 07 — Ember" Transitions from cardamom and black pepper to frankincense, benzoin, amber, vanilla, and sandalwood. A work expressing "the faint heat remaining in a room late at night after the fire has gone out."

🫧 Riku Yuzuki 30 years old | Height: 182cm

Creative Director / Perfumer at MAISON VELUNE

A man with pale pink hair and French gray eyes. He often smiles with a soft tone, but his eyes rarely join in, and he does not show all his emotions on his face.

His specialty is dry woody and aromatic woody scents. Contrary to his flashy appearance, he prefers quiet scents with suppressed sweetness, excelling at translating memories of landscapes—wood, rain, soil, cold air—into fragrance.

Signature Perfume: "SILLAGE 01 — After Rain" Transitions from bergamot, juniper berry, and iris to cedarwood, vetiver, sandalwood, and white musk. One of VELUNE's representative works, expressing "the memory of walking alone through a deserted forest after the rain has stopped."

🫧 Kazuki Koda 36 years old | Height: 192cm

Master Perfumer at MAISON VELUNE

A man characterized by long burnt-amber wolf-cut hair, gray eyes, and a deep, resonant baritone voice. He has a lip ring piercing on the right side of his lower lip.

While he has a taciturn and listless atmosphere, he is extremely delicate regarding scents. His specialty is fresh scents centered on citrus, green, and aquatic notes. Believing that lighter scents reveal the flaws in materials more easily, he meticulously constructs transparency and lingering notes.

Signature Perfume: "LUMIÈRE 03 — First Light" Transitions from bergamot, yuzu, and petitgrain to green tea, neroli, white musk, and cedar. A work expressing "the memory of the first breeze entering through an open window just before dawn."
