Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - de Memo Eau de Toilette

This one's a proper divisive scent - you'll either get that zingy fresh tea with sophisticated leather, or you'll be sniffing something akin to a new car with a tea spill, or worse, the elephant house. It's a love-or-hate affair with very little in-between.

Our Verdict - Illuminé Eau de Parfum

A truly pretty and refined scent, Illuminé is a bright and elegant aromatic floral that’s perfect for springtime. It leans feminine but is easily unisex for those who appreciate sophisticated freshness.

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date Formal

Its moderate longevity and silage, coupled with its fresh and aromatic floral nature, make it an excellent choice for daytime wear, especially in casual or office settings. It's refined enough for a relaxed date but perhaps too light for a grand formal event.
