About Mendittorosa Le Mat perfumed candle:
Mendittorosa Le Mat Extrait de Parfum is a sensual séance of a perfume, as musky, rose-centred florals communicate with a mystical underworld of spices and earthy sweet immortelle. The full-bodied opening is redolent of thick and syrupy dried fruit and marsala wine. Far removed from the cloyingly oversweet commercial offerings, the rose here is rich musky, almost dirty. Inspired by tarotology and divination, this niche scent leads us further down the spiritual rabbit hole as darkly oriental, pollan-sweet patchouli disrupts rose’s glossy confidence. Egyptian geranium seems to act like a seamless medium between the floral and herbal worlds as earthy spices such as nutmeg, clove, black, pepper and cumin radiate their balsamic sweetness. The hay-hued golden glow of Immortelle balances Le Mat’s dark core with its spicy, sweet scent of camomile and sunbaked straw. Hope certainly shines bright at the end of this sensual tarot reading.
Mendittorosa Le Mat is an Extrait de Parfum from the house’s iconic ‘Talismans’ collection, renowned throughout the niche perfume world. Containing 25% oil concentration, Le Mat is the highest quality and most luxurious form of perfume available. The niche perfume was inspired by Ralph Waldo Emerson’s quote, ‘Every man is a divinity in disguise, a god playing the fool’ and in tarot, Le Mat is the fool, or journeyman. A figure of chance, enigma and propulsion. End and beginning. We must turn over cards and accept fate, walk forward into new futures, lives and loves. We may not have all the tools for survival, but we definitely hope for a good hand.
Le Mat is housed in a heavy French-made glass bottle with a cap moulded from clay by the hands of Tuscan sculptor, Alessandro Reggioli. Each cap is individually marked with the artist’s fingerprints and is therefore unique. Fastened around the bottle is a handmade terracotta charm incised with the words ‘Le Mat’ and a tiny bell announcing Le Mat’s arrival. The bottle is presented in a luxurious hand-made case, along with a facsimile of the original Le Mat Marseille Tarot card – directly licensed by the Academy of Tarot.
In the 2018 edition of Perfumes The Guide, acclaimed fragrance critic Luca Turin awarded Le Mat a coveted 5 stars.
