Sherwood
Sherwood by Memo Paris is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with blackcurrant, pink pepper and carrot seed, moves into orange blossom and rose and dries down to sandalwood, oakwood and cashmeran. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Carrot Seed Earthy, rooty and oddly powdery. Often used to echo iris.
Heart
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Oakwood Dry, toasty barrel wood. Closer to a whisky cask than a forest.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
