Andrea Maack Ceramic ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 19 October 2021 7 Comments

Artist Andrea Maack has launched Ceramic, a new unisex fragrance.

Pure and simple in structure but extreme in character, Andrea Maack´s ceramic eau de parfum explores the scent of natural white clay on the skin. Inspired by Icelandic geothermal areas overflowed with mineral silica. Ceramic is a scent almost transparent in nature, capturing the allure and intimacy of human touch. Ceramic is the scent of natural white clay. The freshness and the mineral feel of this scent breaths new life into the skin.

A smooth, cool, wet clay that melt´s [sic] on the skin turning into a luxurious porcelain. A unisex soft, cool and powdery scent.

The notes include foliage, apple, freesia, white and purple flowers, lily of the valley, musk and woody amber.

Andrea Maack Ceramic is available in 50 ml Eau de Parfum.

    Well, it’s official: I just don’t understand perfume-speak any more. Even for lists of notes, “white and purple flowers” is bizarrely general — I know there’s such a thing as a white floral but lilac, lavender, orchid, iris, violet, heliotrope, sweet pea, and dozens more are all purple, and all vastly different. It’s as if someone thought, “Well, I have to put *something* in the notes, so here’s a bunch of random stuff to shut them up”: it might as well have said “bunch of plants”.

    And nothing on the list evokes white clay to me. It’s such a weird road to go down.

      I got this text from Fumerie yesterday:

      “The crisp spice of autumn air.

      Marcescent hillsides aflame in auburn & gold.

      The purest essence of xanthophyll distilled down to a suaveolent umber-hued malabathrum eclegme.

      Formulated solely from an ‘autumnal palette’ of unique raw materials and accords designed over the last 8 years, Mond stands as one of the longest running Slumberhouse projects dating back to the family of creations like Zahd, Kiste, Sova and Jeke.

      An olfactory electuary properly anointed with honey, rubescent spices, morello cherry & sapwood, quarender apple peel, accords of mavrodaphne & marchpane, chicory, pipe tobacco casing tincture (amaretto, plum, vanilla), balsam incarnadine, pillowy amber notes, sandalwood, raspberry, guaiacwood, foin coupe bordeaux accord, pumpkin & cream. -text directly from Slumberhouse perfumer Josh Lobb”

      It made me wonder if they make it a practice of attributing perfume descriptions, or if they did it in this particularly absurd case as a way to distance themselves.

        Considering they accepted to sell this Mond without knowing a bit about it until a few hours before receiving it (according to Josh Lobb on Instagram), it’s save to say they trust and don’t distance.

      I guess giving notes is often a concession anyway. And they probably are perceived very different by fragheads and ‘normal’ people.

        This.

        I don’t think that the AM line is geared towards perfumista types, really.

        Actually very few lines are geared towards perfumista types.
