Fresh Mandarin: The niche fragrance of Reminiscence
Very often, the perfumes of Reminiscence are synonymous with softness, warmth and roundness. However, this time, it is a completely different register that the brand decides to explore. Reminiscence presents us its Mandarin Fraiche fragrance, more Mediterranean and above all much fresher than usual. So what about this unisex essence, boosting all the freshness and energy of citrus? We tell you everything!
Fresh Mandarin, ingredient enhanced by other raw materials
Mandarine Fraiche is a fragrance that is clearly dominated by mandarin, as its name immediately suggests. However, contrary to what he might lead us to think, mandarin is not the one and only ingredient in this fragrance. Here, Reminiscence tries to sublimate it by using other raw materials set back, used in the service of the mandarin to give it more subtlety.
At first, zesty citrus fruits dominate. Mandarin, gourmet and tangy, is associated with a lime that is more bitter but just as energizing. To amplify the natural ardor of the mandarin, Reminiscence adds pink pepper here, a warmer and more incandescent spice. The bite of its top notes is then relayed by a more aromatic heart based on lemon verbena. Mandarine Fraiche is also illuminated with white tea, for a more radiant and racy effect. Reminiscence then decides to incorporate white musk into its recipe. Thus, the Mandarine Fraiche fragrance leaves a feeling of cleanliness and purity behind it, like that of a freshly ironed white shirt on bare skin. It all ends with a floral and powdery breath of iris,
Mandarine Fraiche, a fragrance from the Classics of Reminiscence collection
Mandarine Fraiche is presented to us in a bottle devoid of any superfluous detail. Its bottle forms a thick rectangle of transparent glass, the heavy weight of the walls of which speaks volumes about its refinement. Without any color, Mandarine Fraiche goes straight to the essentials and focuses on purity. A cube comes to cap the whole and protect its vaporizer. A simple gray label displays its name on its front face. No one can then give age or gender to this perfume. In reality, this visual is far from being a first for the Reminiscence house. This bottle is part of the Classics of Reminiscence collection. Thus, Mandarine Fraiche follows the previous Vanilla, Patchouli or Tonka Bean of Reminiscence. Each of these juices displays a strong temperament and places a raw material at the center of its recipe, while enhancing it with other elements. On the other hand, for the very first time, freshness dominates, while Reminiscence had so far accustomed us to more roundness and exoticism.
