Saffron is the keystone of this composition, magnified by the petal-like sweetness of flowers, creamy woods and resins. Delicately ambered, enveloping fragrance, it is part of our Graines Vagabondes collection.
About the flacon: A representation of the 'fairy chimneys' that ponctuate the Cappadocia region. Volcanic eruptions created this surreal moonscape: the lava flows formed tuff rock, which wind and rain sculpted into sinuous valleys with curvy cliff faces and pointy fairy chimneys.
"The fragrance was born from the idea of a creamy saffron. I grew up in Spain, where this spice is widely used, and years later, during travels in the Middle East, finding it in delicious desserts always appealed to me. For Cappadocia, I wanted to revisit its richness of expression, to exalt it. By infusing it with the opulent essences of frankincense and myrrh resins; wrapping it in a floral embrace of Turkish rose absolute, iris butter and jasmine; and finally, immersing it in the woody sweetness of Sandalwood Album, mingled with the richness of Madagascar Vanilla and Laos Benzoin". - Gaël Montero

Memo Paris was founded in 2007 by Clara Molloy and her husband John. They see fragrance as a journey, forging its identity around magical destinations and potent raw materials. This desire for travels to far-off places and encounters is the very reflection of the founding couples: she the Parisian-Catalan poet, he the sporty Irish globetrotter. Both have explored the world of perfume to produce a collection of scents based on places they have visited and loved: Ethiopia, Bhutan, Indonesia and Russia, amongst others. Each evokes a different memory and is ideal for those wanting to carry the world with them, wherever they may go. Through four collections, Memo recharts the map of a sensory world steeped in emotion, revisited with fragrances, ingredients and sensations. The motto: ‘The journey is the destination’.
