Memo Paris Sherwood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Juliette Karagueuzoglou. Sherwood opens with Carrot Seeds, Pink Pepper, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Spicy Notes, Orange Blossom, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Oak, Sandalwood, and Cashmeran. Memo Paris's Sherwood carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Sherwood is less 'forest fantasy' and more 'creamy sandalwood enigma'. Some reckon it's a smooth, comforting dream, others find it a nauseating, persistent nightmare. Definitely one to sample, as it clearly hits different for everyone.

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 moderate sillage and creamy, soft character make it suitable for close-proximity situations like dates and casual wear. While some find it office-appropriate, others report strong longevity and a 'creamy thick' quality that could be too much in a formal or very professional setting.

About

Sherwood opens with a surprising hit of blackcurrant and carrot seeds, given a subtle kick by pink pepper. This quirky start soon gives way to a creamy heart of rose and orange blossom, warmed by gentle spices. The base settles into a smooth, enveloping blend of woody oak and sandalwood, softened by musky cashmeran for a cozy, almost lactonic finish.
