Epiphany, from House of Matriarch was released in 2013. The perfumer behind this creation is Christi Meshell. The notes are Agarwood (Oud), Amber, Coriander, Honey, Lavender, Lily, Oakmoss, Pepper, Sandalwood, Tobacco.
Great way to finish off my reviews of this collection ending on a high. I have to say I can't afford to get more than two of these and I had my heart set on Sexmagic and Gateways but this is giving me food for thought. Firstly, this scent is infectious it seems to linger inside my nose for a moment like I'm breathing in smoke or a dense fog, that's not to say its aggressive though the top notes, they are delicate which is probably what allows and adds to the 'breathing it in' effect. Again a natural, realistic floral this time with something called hidcote pink lavender and lily And I must say it's a fantastic combination...this is a floral that is definitely suitable for a man to wear. I've just noticed the first reviewer here saying the perfumer described it as 'masculine floral' and it is! In fact the first I can honestly say I genuinely like a maybe would wear. It's certainly an epiphany too as I can't believe how much I like it! You can detect the oud as it dries down, getting a little earthier on me and yet more masculine but still retaining the awesome lavender (which I like anyway but this has to be the nicest and least intrusive I've ever smelled) along with lily which again I love but can go a little muggy...this doesn't have that and just captures the lovely initial fragrant bouquet. Something I haven't mentioned a lot is the silage, projection and longevity on these perfumes is absolutely MASSIVE!!! I'm not used to such concentration they are insane. House of Matriarch have created a very artistic and thought provoking series here and have made something worthy of attention and intrigue. I like continuity in art, narrative if you like which leads you through whether you enjoy all the content or not and this has that.
