Kyodo – A Gourmand-Mineral Amber Creation with Modern Depth

Süskind introduces Kyodo, an exclusive new fragrance that brings a contemporary perspective to amber: dark, intense and dry-woody, yet lifted by a sweet-mineral brightness.

Composed by Philip Kraft, one of the world’s leading fragrance chemists, Kyodo is built around Ambronova®, his newly developed captive molecule. Derived from sustainably sourced cedarwood oil, it gives the scent its distinctive depth, blending dry woody amber notes with mineral sweetness, subtle oud-like accents and a gentle peppery edge.

At the centre of the composition lies a velvety iris note, adding volume, softness and a creamy transparency that balances the darker tones. Cashmere wood and Iso E enhance the fragrance’s sensual aura and generous sillage. A delicate nut–nougat nuance warms the opening without tipping the scent into overt gourmand territory, preserving Kyodo’s refined, modern elegance.

Named after the Japanese word for together, Kyodo reflects the harmony of contrasting elements, while Ambronova®, inspired by the brilliance of a supernova, symbolizes the radiance of this innovative creation.
