Hito

Hito is a stunning fresh and aromatic fragrance. The greenness, tea, elemi, fig and citrus certainly come through. However, the defining note is eucalyptus, though not listed. Its character is humid and camphorous. Imagine hanging fresh eucalyptus from your shower head. I think the comparison to Debaser is fair (I own and love both), but Hito is more complex, and it doesn’t dry down sweet like Debaser. I love to wear this to bed. It’s a calming ritual. Edit: Of all my fragrances, this is the fastest I’ve ever finished a bottle. I will be repurchasing another, and a backup.

I have both Hito and Haru from wa:it. Both of them are beautiful. Hito is fresh, sunny and mouth wateringly juicy with fleshy fig and sour citrus with a strong rose in the dry down, amazing for high summer days and gelato in white cotton and a hat. This actually lasted on me all day from 7am til 8pm

This fragrance stood out to me as different and just really pretty and uplifting. I enjoy the fig and later some florals when I wear it

Imagine it's the summer, and you're invited to an old traditional Japanese home that's clean, uncluttered and renovated in the country with solid dark wood construction, tatami mats and sliding doors with paper panels. As you walk into the open kitchen you see a pitcher of freshly made yuzu spritzer garnished with its leaves, a beautiful citrus bowl centerpiece, along with fresh-cut flowers arranged just for you and your guest. As you explore, you're impressed to find a cozy library full of books of poetry from different languages. You crack open a book that catches your eyes, and relax into the moment. And as you do, you can hear the gentle sounds of a creek nearby, likely on property. The home is surrounded by lush greenery and warmed by the sun. Somewhere far off in the corner of one of the rooms upstairs is a small alter where the walls still hold the scent of past intense burning after all these years.

WA:IT's Hito is a very green, aromatic, meditative fig. It's sharp rather than soft and creamy, and has some zestiness from the various citrus accords. There is a tea note- to my nose it seems like more of a green tea than a black tea- which reminds me of my favorite fig, Fig Infusion by Essential Parfums. However, Hito sits more on the herbal side, and even has some resinous character to add depth. I don't get anything woody from this, but I do get some stemmy and floral accords- like a freshly mowed lawn with a fig tree in the distance.
