Alkemia Perfumes Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Sharra Lamoureaux. Alkemia Perfumes's Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a wild ride. Some say it's sexy, others find it strange; a sweet, smoky, powdery concoction that's either a masterful blend or a muddled mess, depending on your skin chemistry and how long it's been sitting. Definitely divisive, but never boring.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

With moderate longevity and intimate sillage, it is discreet enough for closer encounters but still makes an impression. The blend of sweet, smoky, and citrus notes allows for versatility, fitting well for dates and classy casual events, but its unique character might be too much for a formal office setting.

About

Imagine a vibrant pop of lemon zest and bergamot, swiftly followed by an unexpected embrace of sweet caramel and praline, like a dessert served with a cheeky glass of sparkling wine. As it dries, the playful sweetness gives way to a refined heart of iris and orchid, dusted with a soft, almost powdery elegance. Underneath, a subtle wisp of incense adds a warm, mysterious depth, preventing it from ever becoming too saccharine and lending it an alluring, sophisticated edge.
