Perfume

Perfume is a Japanese pop and electro-pop group known for their futuristic sound, high-energy performances, and synchronized choreography. The trio—Ayano Ōmoto ("Nocchi"), Yuka Kashino ("Kashiyuka"), and Ayaka Nishiwaki ("A~chan")—originated in Hiroshima and formed in 2000. They rose to national prominence after teaming up with producer Yasutaka Nakata, whose sleek electronic production helped define their signature techno-pop style.

Perfume made a major impact in the mid-2000s with hits like "Polyrhythm" and "Electro World," becoming icons in Japan’s electronic music scene and later gaining international attention. Their music blends catchy melodies with high-concept visuals, often incorporating cutting-edge technology in their concerts and videos. With a run of chart-topping albums and a dedicated global fanbase, Perfume continues to evolve their sound while maintaining their distinct identity in J-pop and beyond.
