Memo Paris Indian Leather is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Juliette Karagueuzoglou. Indian Leather opens with Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Oud, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Frankincense. Memo Paris's Indian Leather carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This isn't for the faint of heart. While some find its earthy, resinous depth incredibly addictive, others recoil from an opening that can be challenging to say the least. Definitely a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, but if you're into serious oud, it's worth a sniff.

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.

Its potent oud and resinous character make it unsuitable for an office environment, but it shines in cooler weather, particularly for sophisticated evening occasions or intimate dates.

About

Indian Leather unfurls with a bold, almost jarring burst of cypriol and a rich, earthy oud, veering towards animalic for some. As it settles, the initial intensity softens, revealing a creamy fusion of vanilla, warm resins, and a delicate, almost phantom rose and jasmine. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of smoky frankincense and deep patchouli, creating a dark, opulent, and surprisingly sensual experience.
