Dr. Nancy Berkoff, CFS: Certified food and flavor Technologist Reviews J’Aree Hage’

"Perfume echoes the soul.”

  J’Aree Hage’

 

“Fragrances have a power of persuasion stronger than that of words, appearances, emotions, or will. The persuasive power of a fragrance cannot be deflected.  Fragrance enters into us like breath into our lungs, it fills us up, imbues us totally.”

                                                    Dr. Nancy Berkoff

 

 

Perfume is an essential entity; it is subtle but has enormous effects; J’Aree Hage’ perfume acts as a veil of perfection for the discerning patron.

At its heart, J’Aree Hage’ is the ultimate trademark in fine fragrances. The company has an established uber-niche in the rarified world of ultra luxe living. J’aree is mounted at the center point, where creation of a fragrance is an art form, occupying a space between food, wine, and fashion. With wine and food, fragrances share a sensuality that is intellectual, requiring attention to miniscule variations in aroma and molecularity. Like fashion, fragrance is a wearable form of art, an outward expression of the entwined partnership of creator and the patron.

In its new and projected format designed to meet wide consumer demand, the brand will ably and seamlessly retain its distinctive artisanal edge. In the midst of company scaling, clientele will continue to envision artisans carefully selecting only the most aromatic flower petals for enfleurage extraction. And, patrons will encounter centuries of refinement, not just from J’Aree’s test market in multi-million dollar store settings, but research into deep cultural refinements which have allowed J’Aree’s creation of the ultimate lexicon inclusive of 90 new types.

Just as one learns to sample vintages of wines and brandies, clientele will continue to be inspired to fully appreciate and indulge in J’Aree Hage’ offerings. Since its introduction, the company has fueled perfume aficionados’ desire for the best of  contemporary and historic global cultural fragrances.

Top notes provide the first scent impression of a fragrance once it has been applied to the skin. They are usually lighter, more volatile aromas that evaporate readily. Their scent usually lingers for between 5 and 30 minutes. However, J’aree’s aroma tech allows a longer duration through tempering alcoholic intervention. For example, a diva-like extension of top notes is revealed in a unique floatation synthesis of Pittosporoum, elaborating Bulgarian rose and other heady florals in J’Aree’s grand perfume invention, Belle Courte. In a similar vein, a perfume such as Delphos Aeolian Rome 45 AD Parfum, elevates the essential profile of Susinum, described by Pliny and detailed in Arabic as Susãn, through J’Aree’s fresh-scent invention that relies on an unusual accord of lilies. Likewise, J’Aree’s invention of Versailles 1727 Paris Parfum melds a golden array of lush floral top notes derived from the French countryside through artisan micro enfleurage .

J’Aree’s base notes are those with the greatest molecular weight. They last the longest, and act as fixatives, reducing the evaporation rates of the lighter notes, giving the fragrance the ability to hang in the air, maintain the mood. A rare range of olfactory base notes inform Hage’s formulas along with those more widely known, including Myrrh, Frankincense  and Styrax hand expressed for the product in Turkey and Israel.
 

Flacons are the modern equivalent of an illuminated manuscript, while having the technical responsibility of sheltering and nurturing their precious contents.  The glass and crystal used to form the flacons have been selected from artisans utilizing traditional European techniques. Glass pigments are created using the essence of precious gems and rare minerals. Decorations are selected to complement the contents of the flacons, creating a complete experience, beginning with the visual and segueing through the tactile into the olfactory.

“J’Aree Hage’ is a complete experience. It is an education, a mandatory indulgence and a passport to a rarified world.”
