The awakening of the dragon, imperial. Eyes sparkling with icy fire. Oil of orange. He rises above my cup of red tea, his breath swirling the flavor of bergamot. His trembling shadow stretches out to my place in the hall of honor. Suddenly the heat swells, and the atmosphere shifts from citrus to intense wood. Soaring into the air, he vanishes from the palace in a flash of powder. Benzoin.
What is he looking for? All of a sudden, it stops snowing outside. I can see him in the distance, undulating in sync with the Great Wall of China.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Grapefruit
Heart Notes: Orange, Styrax, Tolu Balsam, Red Tea
Base Notes: Benzoin, Vanilla, Rockrose, Mate Tea, Amberwood, Gurjum

The Libertine view:
Nothing quite welcomes the new season like Winter Palace by Memo Paris. With notes of orange, grapefruit and amberwood, it slowly shifts from citrus to intense wood as the scent develops, while bursting with passion and energy.

Magical must-have Memo scent!
This scent is magical. It’s unique. It’s complex. It’s not overpowering. I strongly recommend getting your hands on a sample. I couldn’t even begin to describe all its elements! Fresh, creamy with depth. Definitely soft amber and citrus. Neither feminine nor masculine leaning. Having tried several Memo samples, this is number 1 on the list to purchase full price.

Yum
The bottle doesn’t resemble what’s inside…… I promise it’s not a dragon! This reminds me of my childhood, walking the city streets of Europe and getting a whiff of tart cherry compoet- a refreshing fruit drink. This is exactly that! I do smell the branch of the tart cherry as well. This is beautiful. Don’t be confused with sweet cherries. Think morello cherries.
I can’t smell this on myself but enjoy smelling my hubby. Most definitely a unisex perfume.
