French Leather Rose by Memo Paris opens with geranium, raspberry and rose, tart and floral rather than jammy. Iris softens the heart into something powdery, while leather and saffron give it a warm, spiced edge. The base settles into amber, cedar and musk, dry and close to the skin rather than heavy. Released in 2016, it works equally for men and women who like rose read through leather instead of straight sweetness. Voters wear it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening and at night. Longevity voters lean toward long-lasting to eternal, and on sillage the vote leans strong, never losing its powdery softness. A 3ml decant carries you through a week of cold evenings, and a 10ml decant is enough to know it for the whole season.

More from Memo Paris
Memo Paris was founded in France in 2007 by Clara Molloy and her husband John, and many of its perfumes are named after places, each one a memory of being somewhere far away. The range moves between leather, spice and soft flowers: saffron and cardamom, rose and jasmine, then musk, sandalwood and vanilla to finish. African Leather is the warm, spiced one, with an aromatic freshness on top. Marfa is creamy tuberose laid over woods. French Leather is softer, closer to rose and musk. Sintra, bright white flowers with a sweet citrus glow, rounds out a first set.
