What does Sweet Memories smell like?

The top notes are pink pepper, blue ginger, bergamot and green notes, so it starts fresh, citrusy and lightly spicy. In the heart, Turkish rose, cardamom and blackcurrant add a soft, fruity touch. The base turns woody, powdery and sweet through vanilla, patchouli, cedarwood and sandalwood.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good and consider it very good value, though the number of votes is small. Being unisex, it suits men and women alike. Nishane Ani (Extrait de Parfum) and The Dua Brand Drowning in Vanilla have a close note and accord profile.
