  It’s a beautiful and very spring-like fragrance in which many of the listed notes are identified perfectly: mainly the apple, jasmine, and musk stand out, but you also notice the powdery touch of the rose, the sweetness of the ylang-ylang, the cleanliness of the freesia, and the juiciness of the peach. The wood note probably adds fixation to the composition, but it’s barely perceptible on its own. I love the fragrance as much as I love the bottles from this house, and this has been a great addition to my collection.

  Cheerful, bouncy fruit salt. Joyful, reddish-citrus with apple and roses. One of those fresh fruity perfumes that always works well and brings a smile. Very spring-like and summery, but works in any season. It has a thread where the rose joins the fruit that lingers and stays, resulting in a very rich and wide scent. It can remind you of the cheerful oxygen provided by Marc Jacobs’ Daisy, which is also an all-rounder designed for all types of noses because it means smiling, kindness, and universal calm.

  Oh, what a beauty. I had no expectations, but I’m trying all of Maison Matine’s scents and honestly, more than one has turned out good. That said, with Arashi, there was no instant love at first. I sprayed it on my forearm and went to work, forgetting I was wearing it. At first, it seemed strange; I couldn’t quite place it well, so I just let it sit. And what a good thing I did. Like a dish that tastes better the next day as time goes on, I started getting bursts of something so happy and crunchy… I was instantly in a good mood. And that’s because Arashi is a deceptive scent that turns into an arty, carefree perfume, simply optimistic, and feels frizzy and salty without necessarily being so. Luminous and pleasant, what more could you ask for?

  Let me start by saying I’m not an expert in perfumes and almost all of them give me a headache. As soon as I put this on, I immediately remembered the 212 Carolina Herrera for Her I wore back in 2013, so I’m not sure if I like it for what it is or because it feels familiar. Clean and fresh-floral aroma, I think that’s the right description. I don’t know if it’s the flowers that tell me it might give me a headache if I wear it daily, but if you’re not delicate with scents, I recommend it. Also, Maison Matine has a modern vision regarding environmental production, packaging, and design among other things, which I wish other houses had. I saw this perfume on a display stand alongside ten others from the brand and wanted to try them all, which I clearly couldn’t do. To my surprise, on the official Maison website, they sell a set at a good price with all the miniatures for testing, which I 100% recommend since testing with time at home before choosing a scent that really suits you is the best thing you can do compared to trying something quickly in a store. Regarding the sillage, unlike most people, I’d like it to be shorter because I like to smell what I’m wearing but I don’t want to force others to feel what I think is a good scent.

  This is a beautiful fragrance I tried in the Maison Matine discovery set and now it’s on my wishlist. It feels floral with that touch of green apple and a perfect musky base for spring. It’s quite feminine and totally appropriate for the office. It’s not groundbreaking, but it doesn’t need to be.

  Apple and freesia, the quintessential innocent angel girl scent, but it gets boring fast. I’ve been using the Maison Matine set for a year and still haven’t written about Arashi No Umi; I guess the concept just doesn’t make me vibrate. I don’t like the apple: it’s a flat, pasty, loud freshness without any depth. Sometimes it makes me dizzy, though that’s rare and I think I’m just sensitive to this fruit. Freesia by itself isn’t bad; before I thought it caused that powdery, drowsy effect, but now I think it’s the iris-based musks doing that. Here, it doesn’t: Arashi No Umi is fresh, but in an oddly dry way. The silky softness of the freesia clashes with the violent shine of the apple, creating something uncomfortable, like the thin layer of moisture from a rough alcohol wipe used to clean your hands. The other notes should be working backstage; maybe a hint of sandalwood peeks through? But it’s like saying nothing. This fragrance has two clear protagonists, apple and freesia, and sadly, one I dislike and the other I just don’t care about.

  Good girl apple-freesia. Angelic, like few other things, but quite boring. I’ve had the Maison Matine discovery set for a year and still haven’t written anything about Arashi No Umi. Maybe the concept just doesn’t spark anything for me. The apple doesn’t work for me; it’s a flat, pasty, loud freshness without any depth. Sometimes it makes me dizzy, though that’s rare and I think it’s just my sensitivity to this fruit. The freesia as a single note isn’t bad. I used to think it was responsible for those powdery, drowsy effects, but now I see it’s probably the iris-musk combo doing that. Here, it doesn’t happen: Arashi No Umi is fresh, but an strangely dry kind of fresh. The silkiness of the freesia combined with the violent shine of the apple degenerates into something uncomfortable. Like the finest layer of moisture on a rough hand towel with alcohol on it. The other notes must be working backstage. Maybe a hint of sandalwood peeks its head out? But that’s like saying nothing. This fragrance has two clear protagonists: the apple and the freesia. Tragically, one I dislike and the other I’m indifferent to.
