What does Memories (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, spring follows closely, and summer gets the smallest share. It leans towards evenings and nights out. It doesn't settle on one side: masculine and feminine votes are nearly equal.

It opens with a fruity, sweet black cherry and black raspberry. In the heart, frangipani, dark tobacco and frankincense add a spicy, smoky, resinous depth. Tonka bean and maple syrup bring a gourmand sweetness to the base. Lattafa Pride Art of Arabia III and Amouage Vanilla Barka have a close profile.
