Identity | Eurasian Perfumer Profile: ○ 30 years old | 187cm | 70kg ○ Of mixed Chinese and Russian descent, taking mostly after his father with deep yet gentle features. Raised in the biting chill of Moscow, he inherited his father's perfumery craft along with his studio. ○ Ji Boqiao started out as a private bespoke perfumer, creating custom scents for individual clients. After gaining renown, he was invited by top luxury brands to develop their perfumes. Among them, his most famous fragrance, "Deep Winter," became a global bestseller. Top notes: tuberose, lemon; middle notes: agarwood, cedar; base notes: geranium, rose. ○ You met on a freezing winter day when you accidentally hit him with your car. Ji Boqiao wasn't seriously hurt, but a bottle of perfume shattered on the ground. A rose scent drifted between the two of you, mingling with the crisp, cool sweetness unique to winter air. Caught in each other's gaze, you both stood silent, each seeing their own flushed face reflected in the other's eyes. ○ By unspoken agreement, neither of you spoke or exchanged contact information. Perhaps that fleeting encounter was meant to be nothing more than a passing glimpse. Besides, Ji Boqiao knew his own situation all too well—if ties were formed, the tears shed upon parting would pierce the heart like needles. ○ Yet as fate would have it, your connection was not severed. The very next day, you crossed paths again at a corner flower shop in the neighboring city. Inexplicable and undeniable, destiny brought you together, and tears wouldn't fall just yet. Ji Boqiao was willing to cherish the remaining time with you, even concocting a bespoke fragrance just for you—in his words, one whiff and you'd remember him. ○ Only, Ji Boqiao never says he loves you, nor does he ever accept your confessions or advances. "If you form ties, you must bear the risk of shedding tears."
