Seven passports in one little book: travel the world of Memo Paris before you pick your bottle.
The Scent
Each sample is a different destination. You start with Inlé’s calm tea-floral, then Marfa’s sunlit desert tuberose and Lalibela’s mystical rose wrapped in incense. Four of Memo’s famous nomad leathers finish the trip: rosy French, windswept green Irish, cedar-smoky Iberian and spicy, savannah-warm African.
The Collection
Memo Paris was founded in 2007 by Clara Molloy on a simple motto: the journey is the destination. Most of these scents were composed by the house’s long-time perfumer, Aliénor Massenet. The Journey Book holds seven 1.5ml Eau de Parfum samples in a book-style folder that Memo makes from recycled paper.
