What does Mémoire d'une Odeur smell like?

It opens with Roman chamomile, giving a green, lightly spicy freshness. In the heart, Nyctanthes arbor-tristis and musk add a floral, powdery softness. Sandalwood, vanilla and cedarwood settle the base into a woody, creamy footing, while a faintly synthetic clean-air note stays in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though the masculine share is sizeable, so it leans both ways. Etat Libre d'Orange She Was an Anomaly and Byredo Desert Dawn have a close profile.
