Amaku Kiken na Kaori

Amaku Kiken na Kaori (あまく危険な香り, Sweet & Dangerous Scent) is the ninth single by Japanese singer-songwriter Tatsuro Yamashita, released in April 1982.

Amaku Kiken na Kaori was used as the theme song for the Japanese drama series of the same name.

It is said that this song was transcribed from a passage called "Music Book" that Minako Yoshida wrote down in her notebook.

[1] Yamashita originally wrote this song with the intention of having someone veteran singer sing it, but at the recommendation of director Ryuzo Kosugi, he said that he would release it as his own single, and the low-pitched piano phrase of the interlude.

The front cover design features a Schlitz beer and the sign at the horizon mostly resembles "Bob's Cafe" sign located at Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
