The house

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.
