You just use the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, example:

$multipartData = array(
    'metadata={"description":"YaRetail Taxonomy"}',
    '[email protected];type=application/json'
);

$headers = array("Content-Type: multipart/form-data");

$ch = curl_init('http://random.url');
curl_setopt($curlSession, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($curlSession, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($multipartData));
curl_setopt($curlSession, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($curlSession, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);

NOTE: I did not test the code so you should check it first.
