What does Scent Stories Vol.1/Ch.05 - Momento smell like?

Aldehydes and absinth add a slight sharpness to the citrus top. In the heart, vervain, jasmine, rose and lavender come forward. The base of opoponax, gaiac wood and patchouli sets a sweet, resinous, woody and faintly smoky ground, softened by powdery and creamy tones.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Voters spread the seasons almost evenly, with fall, spring and summer slightly ahead. It leans towards business, leisure and daily wear, and reads evenly between masculine and feminine. Parfums de Marly Darley and Mazzolari Hartley have a close profile.
