Lyra Peach
Lyra Peach by Memo Paris is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, bitter orange, cinnamon, turmeric and ginger, moves into sambac jasmine, tuberose and peach and dries down to sandalwood, vetiver and vanilla. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Turmeric Earthy, bitter golden spice. Dusty and slightly medicinal.
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
Heart
- Sambac Jasmine Greener, more tea-like jasmine. Less indolic than grandiflorum.
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
