Zen is the first Shiseido’s perfume released at the world market. It was created in 1964 in a black bottle with a floral pattern. This is an intensive floral scent, with hyacinth, orange blossom, jasmine, mimose, daffodil, violet and woody-musky base, which is not produced anymore. The new, modern version was launched in 2000 and the creator is Nathalie Lorson. This version is lighter, more pellucid, with a general resemblance with the original (the production will be stopped soon). The bottle of the second Zen is white. The third version of Zen was created in 2007 by Michel Almairac of Robertet. This time the bottle is square-shaped and inspired by Japanese golden room for tea ceremony. The designer of the bottle is a Japanese, Taisuke Kikuchi.

I don't feel this perfume as strong, also not as fresh or "green" scent, though it opens with soft "green" notes, which I would call creamy-green. Then it moves to absolutely delightful aroma of freshly cut flowers, bamboo (which seems to become one of my favourite notes) and soft soapy note. General impression - aroma of nature and clean skin. Sophisticated, but perfectly balanced and unostentatious scent, in the best eastern traditions.
I agree, ZEN is the right name!

I had a sample of this version of zen for so many years but I didn't go smell it but in the cold days of winter while I was trying to concentrate to my lessons to get ready for exam.
the first notes are really too strong!it's the pure bergamot.even make me allergic.but then it softens.
actually I don't consider this one a sexy nor a young lady perfume.but it helped me to concentrate,in fact I remember the cold days of exams with this perfume.so maybe they've choosen the right name!

Zen by Shiseido is a bit too strong for me. I think it might be more suitable for some special occasion. Young girls don't always like this scent. To my mind a staying power is quite average.
