Imagine riding your horse to New Mexico. You pass through small towns, see wooden cabins, old cars abandoned in the desert, drink fresh tequila at a local bar, and hear the music of a banjo… and the vast azure sky is your only company on this trip. Taos Blue by Ayond is the olfactory equivalent of such imagination. A fresh ozonic perfume that evokes the feeling of wide-open skies, wildflowers, and the mountain air of New Mexico.

From the very first spray, top notes of neroli, bergamot, bitter orange, and an ozonic accord create a crisp and radiant opening that feels light and uplifting. This is followed by the heart elements that reveal a soft floral bouquet of blue lilac, freesia, pink pepper, and ylang ylang. These middle notes bring a gentle, joyful floral quality that feels fresh, clean, and soothing. It conjures images of desert blossoms blooming under sunny skies, offering a bright and gentle floral embrace.

Warm, comforting woodsy notes are introduced to enrich the floralcy to a realistic level. Cedarwood, vetiver, and elemi form the base. These notes add subtle depth and earthiness while maintaining balance with the fresh, airy opening and soft florals. The result is a fragrance that feels both protective and calming, inviting a sense of sanctuary.

This fragrance is made with naturally derived ingredients and is entirely vegan and cruelty-free. The formula includes essential oils and natural extracts, with sustainable design choices like upcycled olive wood caps and lightweight glass bottles reflecting intentional care for the environment. The overall impression is one of mindful crafting, from scent creation to packaging.

In summary, Taos Blue by Ayond offers an accessible, gender-neutral fragrance experience that captures the spirit of spring in a high desert landscape. The crisp, aromatic freshness, light floral heart, and grounding woody base come together to build a soothing yet enlivening scent. This perfume appeals to those who appreciate simplicity, natural composition, and a gentle connection to place. Especially with its above-average longevity and consistent projection off the skin, it’s a winner for warmer climates.
