THE STORY

Chappaya Putta

Chappaya Putta names the Naga lineage with iridescent scales in Thai tradition. Their colours change as the light catches them, and stories place these beautiful serpent beings deep within the forest. This family is described as powerful and rarely seen. The fragrance follows that image into a forest just after rain, when the leaves are still wet and returning light begins to bring their colours into focus.

The scent of this moment has several levels. Leaves and citrus offer a clearer brightness above the damp earth, while the ground gives the scene its depth. These changing details provide a way to describe iridescent scales through fragrance. One part becomes noticeable after another, like finding a new colour as the light moves across a wet leaf.

Kaffir Lime, Petitgrain and Litsea Cubeba open with fresh citrus and leafy greenery. The first impression is lively and distinct before Neroli brings a clear floral touch to the heart. Rain Notes maintain the watery freshness, while Ginger adds a fine spice. Its warmth gives the air a little movement as the brighter opening begins to soften, keeping the surrounding greenery close.

Mud, Musk and Patchouli form the base of damp earth and softness. Mud makes the rainy setting feel grounded, Patchouli adds depth, and Musk draws the green and floral parts together. The fragrance gradually moves closer to the forest floor, with a little cool freshness remaining inside the warmer finish. A trace of the opening citrus stays close to the earthiness, keeping the air fresh as the woodier details become softer. The rain feels recent, with moisture still held in the ground.
