Perfect Balance...
Yin Transformation (parfum) opens with a brief blast of a mandarin orange citrus and aqueous floral orchid tandem before quickly transitioning to its heart. As the perfume enters its early heart the citrus completely vacates, with the orchid lingering on as it melds with a creamy, milky and just slightly powdery accord comprised primarily of additional ylang-ylang and iris florals thickened by supporting almond milk. As time passes the powdery facets increase slightly with relatively dry, slightly sweet sandalwood balancing the milky florals. During the late dry-down the sandalwood takes the fore, supported by remnants of the now diminished milky floral accord through the finish. Projection is below average and longevity excellent at over 12 hours on skin.
I was introduced to the relatively unknown The Harmonist as a fragrance house a couple years back purely by accident when I was in my local department store buying an unrelated perfume, when I noticed the attractive bottle of the house's warm spicy/patchouli driven Harmonizing Fire on the perfume counter. I got to try *that* perfume on skin (walking away with a sample for further testing), finding it absolutely captivating... until I heard the price of a 50 ml bottle. Fast forward to present time, now having tried a few others from the house with many impressing, but none up until now captivating me like the very first (and evidently their most popular seller)… That all changed with Yin Transformation (parfum). This one is a sneaky devil. From the initial spray it smells absolutely devine, but soon it transitions to the watery milky florals that at first only smell pleasant... but as time passes, as the likely Australian sandalwood mixes with the florals the balance between the creamy florals and the dry woods is just perfect, completely drawing the wearer into its web. Those looking for a big projector will walk away disappointed, but Yin Transformation is more of a personal perfume that only makes itself known to others in a big way if they are relatively close - but those that *do* smell it are in for a real treat. It smells extravagantly luxurious, a perfume befitting its lofty price tag, and its light blue shapely bottle and white cap complement the perfume to a t. To conclude, the heart attack inducing $350 per 50ml bottle pure parfum version of Yin Transformation is a "bank breaker" to be sure, but one of the few perfumes I have sniffed actually meriting a purchase regardless, earning an outstanding 4.5 stars rating out of 5. This one may not be The Harmonist's best seller, but it is their best.
