KENZO has teamed with designer Ron Arad



KENZO has teamed with designer Ron Arad for a new women’s fragrance, Unidentified Fragrance Object.
The unique bottle, designed by Arad, is currently on display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Since each individual bottle is hand-polished, only 1000 units will be produced for the United States. Aurélien Guichard’s exquisite fragrance breaks with industry codes; rejecting the traditional olfactory pyramid and instead balancing between a powerful heart, “the marble accord” and four natural raw ingredients. This one of a kind project will be in very limited distribution, only available at Bergdorf Goodman and kenzousa.com .

UNIDENTIFIED FRAGRANCE OBJECT
- Bottle design by Ron Arad - Featured in Arad's retrospective art exhibit in both Paris and New York City - Recommended for evening wear

Arad was commissioned by Kenzo to create a vehicle for fragrance that breaks with traditional industry codes and evokes sensuality when in contact with the skin. The perfume is not defined by the traditional olfactory pyramid. Its structure is a balance between a powerful heart, “the marble accord”, and four natural raw ingredients that add facets to the note. An exemplary object for both the art and fragrance collector.

History—the art of perfumery has existed for over four millennia, the earliest known record of which is an ancient perfumery factory discovered on the island of Cyprus. The sheer size of the factory (43,000 square feet) indicated that perfumery was occurring on an industrial scale even then. Perfumery began in Egypt and Mesopotamia, but was further developed by the Romans and Persians. It existed in Asia as well, but was mostly incense-based. While Europe obtained perfume via trade as far back as the 11th century, knowledge of its creation did not become a major business until 300 years later. France quickly established its dominance in the craft and remains at the center of the industry today. All Kenzo fragrance products are made in France.

Composition—Perfumes are composed of three “notes”—the top note, middle note and base note—to form a “chord.” These three notes develop over time after the perfume’s application.

-Top notes: also called the “head” notes, these are the first aromas one smells when applying perfume.

-Middle notes: also called the “heart” notes, these scents emerge when the top notes began to dissipate. They comprise the main body of the perfume.


-Base notes: the final phase of the perfume. When the middle notes began to evaporate, the base notes surface, giving the perfume depth and lasting quality.

Top notes are said to make the initial impression, however it is the middle and base notes that compose the main body of a fragrance.

Classification—Perfumes can be classified into the following categories: Floral, Oriental, Woody and Fresh. Within these four main categories, there are also many sub-categories that blend them together. For example, Kenzo Amour is considered a floral, woody musk and L’eau par Kenzo pour Femme is considered a floral aquatic. Fougère (meaning “fern” in French) is considered the universal fragrance family, as it includes elements from all of the four.


The sources of perfume include plants, animals and, most recently, synthetics. The combination of sources used determines the olfactive family the fragrance falls into.

Review on the Parfum's-This whole line comes in beautiful packaging. The bottles are simply gorgeous. I new once I saw the packaging and the fragrance description that this would be one of my new scents.

I use the full size spray in the morning and it stays pretty on my vanity. I keep the fragrance pen in my purse for touch-up though out the day. Or when I went out of town this past weekend I brought it with. The pen is really handy, works nice and doesn't leak in my bags.

This fragrance has great lasting power and will last through a whole workday and into the early evening. The smell has a sandalwood overlay after a couple of hours, which I love. The perfume does not produce a strong scent, instead the scent is one that lingers in the air in soft tones. Excellent perfume. And is something I'd wear in warm weather or cold. It is quite luscious and sensual. On my body and My body chemistry I don't detect a flower note in it, which I love!

Candle-

Wow I love this candle. My home has beautiful Golden Amber scent.

The Candle comes is a gorgeous glass and the cold smell is awesome. It produces a great scent, but it is not overwhelming, so I have it in my bedroom. It is a very inviting scent and has a soft tone to it. I was amazed at how fast the scent was all over my bedroom. It is awesome. My husband is also happy with the scent. He says it is a warm sensual scent. This is burning without any black soot ruining the beauty of the candle. It is burning even all the way down and leaving the glass clean. The Wick is great. No difficulty keeping this candle lit.

I adore the Golden Amber scent and recommend it. Very classy beautiful fragrance.
