Hyperessence Matale
Eau de Parfum
by Parfumerie Generale



The Scoop
Think L’eau Rare Matale on 10. L’eau Rare Matale proved such a hit that Parfumerie Generale decided to play with the original formula and offer tea lovers a new interpretation (to great applause, we might add!). All the elements of the original blend are here in this fragrant tea ceremony of a perfume, with a special amping up of the bright, sparkling citrus and faint, teasing jasmine. In this version, the black tea is a bit more reserved, while dried cedar leaves, a tiny dash of pepper and musk swirl in a fragrance that is never bitter, never harsh. A zesty, elegant re-imagining of an instant classic. Which one will suit you? Why not try both?

I'm not sure if Hyperessence Matale is my favorite of the PG line--not because I don't love it, but because there are so many great ones in that line. That being said, I do find it the easiest of them to wear--especially in this hot weather. And it is easily my favorite tea scent. It's very refreshing: opens with a blast of smoky black tea and zesty citrus. My partner finds it too smoky, but I don't agree. There is a hint of Lapsang souchong, but not as much as L'Artisan's Tea for Two or Cartier's new (and crazy, I think) La Treizième Heure. It quickly mellows out to become a (still zestier and smokier) version of the tender L'Eau Rare Matale (which disappears to nothing in minutes). There is something delicate and floral that appears at that point (I suspect it's the jasmine) that makes it almost heartrendingly beautiful.. I wouldn't recommend buying anything unsniffed; still, I think it's a gorgeous tea for the summer!

An update to my first post. This dries down into a complex musk: on top of the musk, I detect a light peppery note and something else--I assume the black tea. This is a truly sophisticated perfume. Unfortunately, however, it only lasts for about three hours, which is disappointing in an EDP. Hence the four stars rather than five.

This is an intriguing scent. Its top notes remind me of 7 Up, of all things, but not in a bad way. An expensive 7 Up, maybe. Hmmm... Now it's warming up into a sparkly floral, with the jasmine beginning to speak up. I can't wait for the base notes. So far, a 3 or 4 stars. I don't think I'd wear it, but I'd like it on someone else.
