In 1941, Prince Matchabelli introduced May Flower — a fragrance that's hard to forget. A feminine fragrance rooted in the floral family.
Brand country — the United States, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
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 May Flower is built as a living composition, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Prince Matchabelli is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Floral and Whiteflower. From a family perspective the scent maps to Floral.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the fragrance opens as a single chord with a voluminous floral mood: Floral Notes and Lily of the Valley. Here 2 notes work as one voice, creating romantic softness that reads as cohesive from the start.
The middle and base stages are felt as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which gives the structure continuity.
The accord architecture rests on these accords: Floral without random overlap. The profile is feminine, which clarifies the composition character.
In summary May Flower holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best experienced in wear.
