Memoize London Anima is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022. Anima opens with Cherry, and settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, and Ylang-Ylang. Memoize London's Anima carries a Favourite verdict, a oud-led wear.

This one's a straightforward cherry-oud deal, and exactly what it says on the tin. Some will love the bold, dark fruit and woody hit, others might find it a bit sharp and longing for some creamy depth. It's a solid autumn/winter choice.

Given the dominant, slightly harsh oud and patchouli accords, this scent might be a bit much for a formal office setting.

About

Anima opens with a bold, dark cherry note that's rich and sweet, not at all synthetic or sour. This quickly melds with an assertive oud, grounded by earthy patchouli. As it settles, a touch of jasmine's indole peeks through, offering a hint of creaminess, though the violet and ylang-ylang remain elusive, possibly masked by the dominant cherry-oud combination. The overall impression is a deep, woody, fruity warmth.
