Matsuri in Japanese means 'holiday'. Japanese holiday is first of all a holiday for the soul, eyes, and feelings. You can enjoy the oriental floral fragrance with a spicy note that so magically mixes with the night time air and gives a hint of enjoyment. Exotic ylang-ylang and pink peony, together with the fresh mandarin opening, start the composition and then leave the space to the composition created of delicate lilac. Clove refines and sharpens the floral aroma, while the pear gives it richness and a feeling of soft freshness. The base unites heliotrope, peach, jasmine, patchouli and white cedar. The fragrance was created in 2006.

I remember first trying this perfume - it was love at first smell.
"Matsuri" is rather spicy and sharp at first, but after a minute the clove and plum come through. It's a cozy, warm and bold scent - perfect for winter as it reminds me a bit of Christmas cookies.
Este é a versão "edt" do Kenzo Jungle Elefant.DELICIOSO.
(Kenzo jungle elefant EDT version ).DELICIOUS !!!
I have never been to Japan, so I have no idea if that would be indeed any close to a Japanese festive period.
Matsuri is a lovely, vibrant scent. Juicy pear and plum with cloves, and the patchouli-woody base, it does not come out as very flowery, rather powdery and spicy. It is not what I would call 'joyful', but Matsuri invites you to a contemplation. A kind of surprising combination of fun and spirituality, if that makes any sense.
The only thing I regret about this is that is it a bit too subtle. I would love it to be slightly more powerful, stronger.
Ok I really like this perfume, it is perfect for the current cold weather. My only gripe is though it sprays out kind of heavily, it does not last very long. :(
I love this scent! Just got my full bottle today without ever smelling it beforehand. It reminds me of a warm, orange spice tea with a powdery freshness. LOVE it!!! The bottle is gorgeous too.
Wow. I can't believe this day finally arrived... I found a Kenzo Elephant (one of the very, very beloved ones) in a not-overwhelming version which I can wear without killing any innocent victims around (the thing elephants use to do ;) )
A beautiful day-time alternative for KJE. If you are looking for a subtle yet spicy and prominent oriental, this might be the one.
And I'm really looking forward to try on Tsukimi that seems even more full of splendid oriental notes.
Similar to Opium YSL I think - spicy with the Clove - but not so heavy. An amazing, fantastic fragrance !
...what a great scent...at first it reminds me of KenzoJungle Elephant, but it's much more subtle and airy than the first one...it develops slowly (you can almost taste the cedar and cloves..)and since I don't really like cloves,I was a bit sceptical, but in time the purchase of Matsuri showed as a real bingo!!!powdery and feminine...it is a scent of a primetime seductress...
