Memo Paris Winter Palace is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Aliénor Massenet. Winter Palace opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Clove, settles into a heart of Mate, Orange Blossom, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Labdanum, and Benzoin. Memo Paris's Winter Palace carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive yet distinctive tea fragrance: for some, it's a sublime, sophisticated brew; for others, it's an artificial citrus blast or even bug spray. Definitely one to sample before committing, as your mileage may vary wildly.

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.

Its moderate projection and versatility make it very suitable for the office and casual wear, as many users found it inoffensive and calming without being too loud. The citrus-tea profile is generally too relaxed for formal events, and certainly not suited for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with a lively burst of citrus from bergamot and lemon, sharpened by a hint of clove. The heart introduces a rich, aromatic blend of red tea, green mate, and sweet orange blossom, creating a complex, comforting warmth. The dry-down reveals a smooth, resinous base of labdanum and benzoin, rounded off with a gentle, non-gourmand vanilla, leaving a long-lasting, cozy trail.
