Marfa by Memo Paris is a bright white floral with a warm, sweet base. Orange blossom and mandarin orange open it sunny and citrus-led, before tuberose and ylang-ylang take over, rounded by a touch of agave. Sandalwood, vanilla, white musk and cedar settle underneath, giving it a soft, powdery warmth. Released in 2016, women wear it most, and it suits anyone who prefers a floral with real presence. Voters wear it in spring and summer, by day, and reach for it especially when going out. The longevity vote leans long-lasting, and the sillage vote leans moderate, so a light hand still carries. A 10ml decant buys you a season of daytime wear before committing to more.

The community verdict
Orange blossom and mandarin give way to dewy tuberose, ylang-ylang and agave before Marfa settles into sandalwood and vanilla. Wear divides between long-lasting and moderate, as does projection between moderate and strong. It suits relaxed spring days, with summer also working; the agave can feel sharp.

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.
