There are plenty of novelty fragrances that have been released over the years and Japanese fragrance maker Luz is adding to this assortment with a unique perfume that is being marketed as having the scent of a sumo wrestler.
The sumo-inspired fragrance is said to take notes from the hair oil that wrestlers traditionally use to create their slicked-back hairstyles. As such, the unique perfume has notes of eucalyptus, anise, violet, musk, patchouli and sandalwood, and an overall soothing scent experience that reminds one of the smell of burning incense.
Some of the other unique scents in the six-piece J-Scent collection boast Japanese-inspired aromas that remind of traditional sweet sodas, sake and yuzu citrus fruits.
