Indian Leather
Indian Leather by Memo Paris is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with cypriol, moves into rose and jasmine and dries down to vanilla, patchouli, styrax, oud, frankincense and leather. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Styrax Smoky, leathery balsam. Slightly rubbery and dark.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
