Abu Dhabi

by Mylène Alran

Memo Paris Abu Dhabi is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Mylène Alran. Abu Dhabi opens with Plum and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Date and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Amber. Memo Paris's Abu Dhabi carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Abu Dhabi is a divisive Middle Eastern gourmand that some swear by as a compliment magnet and others simply call "yuck." It's not for everyone, with its rich, sweet, and occasionally smoky profile, but it definitely sparks conversation.

This scent is too dominant and sweet for an office environment, but its rich gourmand and amber accords make it perfect for date nights and formal events. It's also suitable for cooler casual outings, given its strong projection and longevity as noted by many reviews.

About

A complex gourmand, Abu Dhabi opens with a burst of sweet plum and aromatic cardamom, quickly evolving into a heart dominated by sticky dates and a metallic whisper of saffron. The journey culminates in a warm, earthy embrace of vetiver and amber, often leaving a distinct smoky trail. It's a syrupy, deeply sensual fragrance that evokes images of opulent Eastern desserts and spiced chai.
