Within the grand halls of the Tang dynasty, a solitary dancer, Yuyi, steps into the light. Her grace feels almost celestial, a fragment of heaven quietly descended into the mortal world. One dance is enough to captivate an entire city. Celestial Robe traces her steps with this fougere, starting with the zesty opening movement: tart orange, lemon and rhubarb, with pine and grapefruit adding sharpness and clarity. Galbanum underscores the green aspects, as a bouquet of woods (cedarwood and guaiac wood) and plush musk and ambergris round off the choreography.

All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This suits a wearer who likes a clean, composed presence with a slightly herbal edge. It feels most natural in close company and bright daylight, where its green citrus lift can read as poised rather than loud, with a quiet, tailored elegance.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, when its citrus and pine facets stay crisp and the mossy base does not turn heavy. Two to three sprays are enough; on skin it opens sharp and airy, then settles into a dry green trail with moderate diffusion.
Who it’s for
For people who enjoy citrus fougères, green aromatics and a dry, mossy finish. It will appeal to those who prefer freshness with structure, a savory herbal edge, and a fragrance that feels lucid rather than sweet or plush.

Zhiwuzhi 挚物志’s story
Zhiwuzhi is a Chinese house that works in a contemporary, concept-led register, often drawing on cultural imagery and a restrained, artistic sense of form. Its fragrances feel more like composed ideas than decorative effects, with an emphasis on texture, symbolism and clarity.
Celestial Robe 羽衣’s concept
Celestial Robe takes its name from 羽衣, the celestial robe of East Asian legend, and frames the fragrance around Yuyi, a dancer in the Tang dynasty whose presence is described as almost heavenly. The composition translates that image into a bright, green fougère built from citrus, rhubarb, pine and mossy woods.
Extra info
The name 羽衣 means a feather robe or celestial garment, a motif tied to immortals and heavenly maidens in East Asian culture. The fragrance is listed as still in production, with an unknown release year.
