Matiere Premiere, renowned for its artistry in crafting fragrances, has unveiled a captivating collection of five new Extrait de Parfum creations. This collection, inspired by iconic scents like Crystal Saffron, Encens Suave, Falcon Leather, Radical Rose, and Santal Austral, reflects a meticulous approach to enhancing fragrance intensity and depth. Each scent in the collection shares a common creative philosophy: a higher concentration, an amplified dosage of the central ingredient, and the introduction of a guest ingredient to add a fresh dimension to the fragrance.
This innovative approach embodies power and intensity, with each creation carefully balanced to evoke both richness and edge. As Aurelien Guichard, Founder & Perfumer, eloquently describes, “With this collection of MATIERE PREMIERE Extraits de Parfum, I wanted to reach a balance between olfactive richness and edginess. More palpable textures, profound quality, deeper comfort.”
Crystal Saffron Extrait, with its guest ingredient Myrrh Oil from Somalia, showcases a textured note that adds a luminous black hue to the composition. The myrrh enriches the vibrant, radiant aspects of Crystal Saffron, offering a round and warm complexity.
In Santal Austral Extrait, the inclusion of Black Cardamom Absolute from Nepal, developed exclusively for Matiere Premiere, introduces a smoky, woody intensity that takes this fragrance into spicier and more vibrant territories.
Encens Suave Extrait is enhanced by the golden, ambery tones of Amber. This resinous note, a classic in French perfumery, amplifies the warmth and richness of Encens Suave, creating a deeply comforting and luxurious scent.
Radical Rose Extrait is transformed by Immortelle Absolute from Croatia, a guest ingredient known for its pronounced character that blends salt and flower. This addition deepens the rose note, adding a darker, more mineral aspect to the fragrance, making it robust and unique.
Finally, Falcon Leather Extrait features Oud Assafi Oil from Bangladesh, one of the most esteemed Ouds in the world. Its deep, dark richness adds warmth and emphasizes the leathery, suede-like aspects of Falcon Leather, making it an embodiment of sophistication and elegance.
This new collection of Extraits de Parfum by Matiere Premiere is a testament to the brand’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of olfactory art, creating fragrances that are not only powerful and intense but also profoundly nuanced and richly textured.
