Tuberose lotion
What I like about the whole Memo brand is that each of their perfumes is treated as a broader concept and comes with accompanying artwork and a bottle design that deserves a prominent spot in any collection. I do not care much for the bit-too-vague backstories, but I can live with that. Anyway, in this edition of the Fleurs Bohèmes line, Memo takes on the tuberose theme.
Marfa opens with a smooth and refreshing light breeze. Things feel a bit fruit-juicy here, a bit sweet and kind of sappy. It does not take long before the white florals appear, along with an overwhelming creamy sensation. It is as if Memo stripped the tuberose of all its sharp and green facets and all that is left is the velvet-smooth softness. And then the ylang, the vanilla and the sandalwood take this creaminess a few steps further, almost into body lotion territory.
Admittedly, the composition feels highly luxurious. It is clear that this is a quality product. But somehow this makes me feel like an Instagram vlogger (or any person for that matter, just picturing an image here) who layers scented body care products with high-end perfumes. Golden sparkle filter and all. Not my kind of vibe.
