Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
Carlotha Ray launched Mandarine & Maté Vert in 2021 — and it was a brilliant move. By character, a feminine fragrance drawing from the chypre, fruit, and floral families. The talent of Jean-Michel Duriez is written all over this bottle. The fragrance concentration is eau de parfum.
Made in Italy, backed by a long and proud tradition. Mandarine & Maté Vert Carlotha Ray — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The scent of Mandarine & Maté Vert is shaped as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Carlotha Ray is clear from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Fruit forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Wood and Leather enrich the profile without taking over. The profile is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
As soon as the fragrance opens you detect sparkling citrus top notes: Lavender, Lime, Mandarin and Passion fruit.
In the central layer you notice Linden blossom and Osmanthus carrying a opulent floral direction.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Green, Citrus, Fruit and Aromatic. It also reaches into Floral, Leather, Earthy / Mossy and Wood.
Taken together Mandarine & Maté Vert sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best understood through real development.
