Zen Gold Elixir was inspired by the flow of Zen energy, according to the brand. It was created to celebrate the Holiday season. The product colour-scheme is gold; vibrant brushstrokes adorn the flacon and the outer carton. The design is by Marehide Susuki, a master of Sumi brushwork, who created the original Zen packaging, introduced in 1964. The floral amber juice was composed by Michel Almairac. The key ingredients are jasmine, magnolia, vanilla, patchouli and amber.
