11 Mar Perfume Review: Raymond Matts Aura de Parfum Collection From Beautystat.com’s Fragrance Expert Sue Phillips
The new collection of fragrances by Visionary Fragrance Designer, Raymond Matts, Aura de Parfum, captures the nuances of lovely impressionist watercolors – a palette of abstract fragrances that are subtle, fresh, vibrant and sparkling. Inspired by nature – blue skies, transparent tropical seas and vegetation, this collection of fragrances is unique and imaginative. Each is surprising and unusual that brings a smile to the wearer.
The names of the fragrances are abstract, imitating sounds and objects, and are not confined to typical descriptive adjectives. Each is mysterious and onomatopoeic – and keeps people guessing with each sniff.
The Collection of Aura de Parfum comes in 200ml spray at $200 SRP and available at www.Nordstrom.com and www.raymondmatts.com
Maiday – Raymond Matts named this and is his tribute to the concept of marriage, the purity of love, intimacy, soft whites, beiges, taupes, ivory.
Kaiwe – The huge arc of a blue-green wave, stretching, arching but never folding. The rush of foam meets shaded aqua.
Pashay – Strength, a dagger of olfactory confidence. A leader with insight into many ideas. A spiritualist of twilight.
Sunah – The repeated sssss-unah an undulating pulse, slow, sensual. A beauty with no ego.
Tulile – The teaser, the charmer who winks and makes you smile when you least expect it.
Tsiling – a high and low note that sparkles. The glint of something so incredible that is moving that catches the eye.
Jarro – The distant rumble of slow sensuality. Bare feet on rough woven fabric, unusually alluring that intrigues, haunts, excites.
