What does Tangier Memories smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters lean towards autumn and spring, with winter next, and mostly see it as a leisure or business scent, though evening and night-out wear get votes too. Most voters call it feminine, yet a fair share find it masculine.

It opens fresh and spicy with bergamot, black pepper and pink pepper. The heart turns sweet and fruity-floral through cranberry, raspberry and Pomarose®, with Siam benzoin adding a resinous softness. It settles into a woody, leathery, lightly sweet base of red leather, musk and tonka bean. Folie à Plusieurs me·cha·no and Tonino Lamborghini Intenso have a close profile.
