    I stumbled upon a gem while doing pilates: suddenly, I noticed an exquisite scent. With so few women around, I asked who was wearing it and, upon hearing the name, thought, ‘what bad luck, she doesn’t know what it is’. But then she said she didn’t know, haha, so I went back to check the notes. It smelled citrusy, green, with white floral touches mixed with leather; to my nose, it smelled expensive, reminding me of Memo Paris’s Eau de Memo, which I adore. The girl confessed she wasn’t wearing it, but it was on her clothes, and she lent me a travel size. I applied it to my hand and can only say it’s beautiful. I don’t know how long it lasts, but while she was moving, the aroma filled the room. I’ve read mixed reviews, but tastes differ. I would definitely buy it; although the price is high, I felt it was worth it.

    Today I came across a marvel: I was doing pilates and suddenly noticed an exquisite scent. With so few women around, I asked the one wearing it and she told me the name; I thought, ‘what bad luck, she surely doesn’t know what it is’ (I live in Australia and assumed she didn’t) until she said, ‘no, I don’t know the name’. Automatically I went to check the notes: I sensed something citrusy, green, and at times a white flower mixed with leather. To my nose, it smelled expensive; I’m not saying it’s the same, but it reminded me of Memo Paris’s Eau de Memo, a perfume that fascinates me… The girl confessed she wasn’t wearing it, but it was on her clothes, and she gave me a travel size to test on my hand. I can only say it’s beautiful; I don’t know if it lasts long or short, but while she was moving, the perfume filled the room. Most of the reviews I read here aren’t very positive, I understand that tastes differ, but I would definitely buy it. If the price is indeed high, I felt it was worth it.

  3. I didn’t think vetiver would be so prominent; it gives a very mature, green touch. It’s basically Molecule 01 with vetiver. Forget comparing it to Another 13; this scent isn’t as pleasant as Le Labo’s. Try it before buying.

  4. Fresh, woody, with a metallic touch that lasts all day. It projects nothing unless you overapply or it’s hot, but the longevity is good, over six hours. It smells like clean synthetic unisex, typical of those carrying Iso E Super. Ideal for the office, it doesn’t bother anyone but leaves no mark either. I’ve read it works as a fixative, but at this price, I don’t think it’s worth it. Pleasant: 6/10 Interesting: 1/10 Versatile: 8/10 Original: 2/10
