Memo Paris Red Island ~ new fragrance :: Now Smell This

French niche line Memo has launched Red Island, a new fragrance in the brand’s Graines Vagabondes collection.
It all begins with an aromatic top note, in which longoza, a typical herbaceous plant from the island of Madagascar, takes center stage, exhaling its unique, finely spiced charm. At its heart, a bold coffee extract unfolds, with its woody, toasty, smoky accents. The base note reveals the caressing facet of vanilla, another Malagasy jewel, adding a delicately gourmand touch to the composition.
About the flacon: it’s called the traveller’s tree and it adorns the bottle of Red Island. The unique fan shape of this flowering plant punctuates the island’s landscapes and becomes the distinctive sign of this fragrance.
Red Island is a fragrance available exclusively online and in our Boutique Cambon at Paris.
