Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ มัทนา) is a captivating perfume inspired by the legendary tale of Matana Patha, a story rich with themes of love, sacrifice, and resilience.

The story Matana Patha, or The Legend of the Rose, is a Thai literary tale of love, inner strength, and self-worth embodied in a beautiful woman named Matana. She is a celestial being whose beauty attracts the attention of the powerful god Suthet, who desires to make her his consort. However, Matana, remaining steadfast and true to her heart, firmly refuses him. Angered by her rejection, Suthet curses her, transforming her into a rose on Earth. Bound by this curse, she can only return to human form during the full moon, for just one day and night, until she finds true love with a man. Only then will she be released from the spell.

As Matana endures her life as a rose, she eventually encounters "King Chai Sane," a nobleman. The two fall deeply in love and marry, breaking the spell and seemingly ending her life as a flower. However, their love is met with complications. King Chai Sane already has a queen, "Queen Chandee," who becomes consumed with jealousy and cannot accept Matana’s presence. Driven by envy, Queen Chandee falsely accuses Matana of betrayal, and the king, believing the queen's accusations, orders Matana’s execution.

On the day of her execution, Matana is spared by a compassionate officer overseeing the sentence, who lets her go free. She then suffers alone in the human world, reflecting on Suthet’s curse. Suthet eventually appears to her again, offering her a place as his consort once more. Yet, Matana resolutely refuses and pleads instead for Suthet to let her reunite with King Chai Sane. Enraged, Suthet issues a final punishment: Matana will forever remain a rose, unable to ever return to human form.

Matana Patha reflects Matana’s courage and unwavering heart, despite her suffering and loss, as she remains true to herself and resists the temptations that could easily change her fate. Her love for King Chai Sane is profound and unshakable, symbolizing loyalty to her heart’s deepest beliefs. The rose, symbolizing Matana’s love, is both beautiful and delicate, yet armed with thorns that represent the pain and sacrifices she endures for her convictions. This tale goes beyond romance, serving as a reminder that “love is like a disease, clouding one’s eyes and ignoring obstacles…” For love may often blind us to hardship, and sometimes, love itself demands suffering and sacrifice.

“Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ มัทนา)” is a captivating rose incense perfume that embodies the spirit of strong femininity and resilience, inspired by the legendary tale of Matana Patha. This fragrance pays homage to Matana, a figure who defies traditional roles and societal expectations, symbolising empowerment and independence. Just as Matana stands firm in her beliefs and choices throughout her tumultuous journey, “Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ
มัทนา)” encapsulates her strength and grace through a harmonious blend of notes that resonate with her story.

At the heart of “Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ มัทนา)” are the lush aromas of Rose de Mai Absolute and Rose Otto, which serve as the foundation of this fragrance. These exquisite rose notes not only signify beauty and femininity but also represent the strength and complexity inherent in every woman. The soft yet potent essence of the rose reflects Matana's duality: her gentle grace paired with her fierce spirit, embodying a woman who
embraces her identity without compromise. The intoxicating floral bouquet invites the wearer to celebrate their own femininity while reminding them of the power that comes from self-acceptance. 

As the fragrance develops, warm and earthy notes of Hay and Amber emerge, creating a rich embrace that signifies nurturing love and support. These notes symbolise the importance of community and sisterhood, echoing the connections among women who uplift one another. This warm heart serves as a reminder of the bonds forged through shared experiences and mutual respect, encouraging women to stand together and support each other's journeys.

The fragrance’s depth is enhanced by the rich, smoky qualities of Thai Oud and Vetiver, which evoke a sense of mystery and strength. These earthy notes reflect the grounded nature of Matana, who remains rooted in her convictions despite the trials she faces. The combination of Thai oud and vetiver also hints at the power of resilience, symbolising the ability to rise above challenges and emerge stronger. This aspect of the fragrance resonates with women who navigate their own struggles, inspiring them to harness their inner strength.

Hints of Civet and Cumin Seed add an intriguing complexity to the composition, representing the emotional intensity and passion that women often experience in their lives. These bold notes convey the raw emotions that accompany love, ambition, and desire, reminding the wearer that vulnerability is a source of power, not weakness. Just as Matana faces jealousy and betrayal, these elements encapsulate the challenges women encounter and the strength they demonstrate in overcoming them.

Resinous notes of Incense, Copaiba, and Myrrh infuse the fragrance with a spiritual essence, evoking a sense of sacredness and introspection. These ingredients symbolise the depth of feminine wisdom and intuition, celebrating the spiritual journey that many women undertake in their quest for self-discovery. The soothing qualities of incense and myrrh encourage mindfulness and reflection, inviting the wearer to honour their own inner voice and intuition.

Exotic spices such as Saffron, Nutmeg, Clove, and Cinnamon provide an erotic allure, enhancing the fragrance’s complexity and richness. These spices represent the vibrant tapestry of femininity, capturing the multifaceted nature of women’s experiences—each note a unique story woven into the greater narrative of empowerment. The warmth of these spices serves as a reminder that strength can be both fierce and nurturing, embodying the full spectrum of womanhood.

Finally, a contrasting blend of Angelica, Orris Concrete, and Gaiacwood offers a green herbal earthy smoky powdery finish that reflects Matana's unwavering strength and dignity. The orris, with its delicate texture, symbolises the gentleness that often accompanies true power, When combined in a fragrance, gaiacwood and rose can create a beautifully balanced composition. The warm, woody, and slightly smoky qualities of gaiacwood can enhance the rich floral sweetness of rose, grounding it with
a sense of depth and complexity. The resinous aspect of gaiacwood may add a sensual undertone, allowing the floral notes to stand out even more prominently. Together, they can evoke a sense of both strength and delicacy, embodying the balance between femininity and depth. Angelica serves as a pivotal note that bridges strength and softness. Its unique scent profile can inspire confidence, encouraging the wearer to embrace their identity and express themselves authentically. Whether through its earthy grounding, bright invigorating qualities, or delicate floral undertones.

“Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ มัทนา)” is a powerful celebration of strong femininity and resilience, inspired by the essence of Matana Patha. Each note in this captivating rose incense perfume tells a story of empowerment, encouraging women to embrace their unique identities and navigate their paths with unwavering strength and grace. The lush floral notes of rose symbolise beauty and femininity, while the earthy undertones of angelica and gaiacwood evoke resilience and grounding. Together, they create a harmonious blend that resonates with the complexities of womanhood.

“Gularb Matana (กุหลาบ มัทนา)” invites women to honour their journeys, connect with their inner power, and stand proudly in their authenticity. This enchanting fragrance serves as a reminder that true strength lies in being unapologetically oneself, empowering women to express their individuality and embrace their unique stories.
