LesNEZ Manoumalia Perfume for Women

New LesNEZ Manoumalia Perfume for Women

"Manoumalia is moving, original, memorable..."

LesNEZ has launched Manoumalia!

For Polynesians, the language of smell is as important as music or dance. Manoumalia is a creation offering an undeniable anthropological flavor in the method that gave birth to it. The new fragrance was developed by perfumer Sandrine Videault, and was inspired by a trip Videault took to Wallis, in the South Pacific, to learn about the use of fragrance materials in the island's "olfactive culture". Wallisians used scented materials as decoration in the form of scented necklaces and bracelets, as hair coloring (sandalwood dust) and as makeup. Videault composed the fragrance but also undertook to do olfactory fieldwork of an ethnographic type to garner information from local sources and meet people who possess "...a deep and sincere olfactory culture" in her view. Videault has been familiar with the culture since she was a child.

Following a TV program on RFO the perfumer was extended an invitation by a Wallisian lady named Malia who offered her to come and explore their local perfume culture. The result is Manoumalia which attempts to stand as an "olfactory picture" of Wallisian cultural habits in the realm of the fifth sense.

As stressed in the press release, not everything can be expressed in one time in one perfume. The fragrance composition is described as a floral-woody-ambery perfume incorporating aromas that hold special meanings and represent different styles of perfume applications in Wallisian culture while offering a modern Western structure. Wallisian perfumes are used in various guises as jewelry (necklaces, bracelets), makeup (curcuma), hair color (sandalwood sawdust).From top to bottom, the scent features notes and accords of fragraea, vetyver, tiare, sandalwood sawdust, ylang-ylang, ambery accord. Fragrea (fragrea berteriana) also called the Perfume Flower Tree or Pua Kenikeni or Ten Cent Flower is said to be the equivalent of the Tiare flower to Tahitians. Please stay tuned for more on this perfume when it becomes available. Meanwhile you are invited to sample it in advance
