Description
Madurai by Memo Paris captures the sacred essence of India's vibrant city, weaving a luminous tapestry of airy jasmine sambac absolute with creamy Australian sandalwood. Bright citrus bursts from lemon and bergamot mingle with exotic Indian turmeric and a juicy peach accord, evoking colorful temple markets and divine nectar. The heart blooms with tuberose, jasmine, and tagete for a white-floral whirlwind, settling into a soft suede embrace. This floral-fruity gem radiates charm and freshness with a spicy, woody depth. Created by Gaël Montero for women.
