MEM
lavender · lavender extract · wild lavender
MEM opens on lavender in several registers, lifted by grapefruit and petitgrain. The heart unfolds ylang-ylang, damask rose and a touch of mint, then the base turns animalic and woody, somewhere between musk, amber and sandalwood. Wear it in autumn or spring, when the air softens and the skin still holds a little warmth.
