What does 1981 Memory smell like?

It opens green and fresh with clary sage, tarragon, coriander and bergamot. In the heart, patchouli, vetiver, jasmine sambac and cinnamon build an earthy, woody, spicy body. The base brings leather, honey, propolis and civet, adding a resinous, animal warmth.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as strong, though the number of votes is small. Its dense, characterful build suits men and women alike. Perfumes with a close profile include Yves Saint Laurent Kouros and Gucci Gucci № 3.
