FALL & WINTER 2006/2007 FRAGRANCE LAUNCHES
Ayala Moriel Parfums is proud to introduce our first perfume to include ambergris:

RAZALA

Razala is a passionate, modern love poem to thorny hills and Desert Mountains. It pulsates with vibrant, colourful spices, seductive flower petals, and precious resins and woods of Arabia. Razala is the perfumer’s Arabic nickname.
The ambergris used in this perfume was beach harvested on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, and no whales were hurt or killed in the process. It was naturally cured by the sun and ocean and sea salt, and adds a stunningly smooth, animalic and sweet effect in this parfum, making it a real treasure.

Top notes: Pink Pepper, Saffron Crocus, Magnolia
Heart notes: Orange Blossom, Rose, Tuberose, Jasmine
Base notes: Ambergris, Oudh, Myrrh, Vintage Patchouli

This perfume is selling fast so place your order now!


SNEAK PREVIEW of UPCOMING LAUNCH
In Winter 2007, Ayala Moriel will launch our one and only –

Topless…

Heartless…

FILM NOIR

Film Noir is a heartless and topless perfume – with base notes only. This is a mysterious concoction of dark chocolate, patchouli and myrrh. Inspired by the cinematic genre of dark and tragic tales, this perfume is as musty and deep as the sewers of Vienna in the Third Man, as dark and tragic as the alleys of Chinatown where the anti-heroes and heroines find their death time and time again every time you watch them on the screen… But most importantly, it is as dark as the soul those who make and watch these films… It is sensual and multi-faceted despite the simplicity of its compositions, and it unravels its dark story as you wear it on your warm skin.
Film Noir is already starting to gather attention and was reviewed recently on Perfume Shrine blog by perfume reviewer Helg from Greece on Perfume Shrine Blog.

You can order a sample or pre-order a bottle, which will be ready for you just before Christmas!

LIMITED EDITION for WINTER 2007
We are very pleased to offer to you this season a limited edition that is both masculine and festive:

BOIS d’HIVER

Bois d’Hiver, our masculine version of Fête d’Hiver is a limited edition for this winter. It is a very similar formula to what is known from previous years as “Fête d’Hiver pour Homme”, only now with the addition of the mouthwatering candied Christmas tree note of Fir Absolute, and fabulous, sparkling Orange Flower Water Absolute to chase away winter gloom and bring joy to your heart!


STOCKING STUFFERS – PARFUM MINIATURES
We love the new look of our sample vials, and think that they can make a great stocking stuffer, but we wanted to offer a more generous amount of juice in a more affordable price that you can use as a fragrant stocking stuffer.
