Memoize London Castitas is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2019. Castitas opens with Cyclamen, Rose, Jasmine, and Gardenia, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk and Amber. Memoize London's Castitas carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Castitas is a divisive one. There's a proper struggle between those who find it a beautiful, clean floral, and others who think it's just a bit too soapy and chemical to truly impress. Try before you commit.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on white floral, floral and fresh - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, fresh floral character makes it highly suitable for casual wear and the office, offering a pleasant aura without being overwhelming. While the intensity and soapy facets might limit its formal appeal, a significant portion of reviews cite 'poor projection,' suggesting it's less ideal for dates where greater sillage is often desired.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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 an initial punch of vibrant rose, jasmine, and gardenia, alongside the slightly green, dewy hints of cyclamen. As it settles, lily of the valley and ylang-ylang emerge, creating a rich white floral bouquet that's both creamy and fresh. The base is a soft, enveloping musk and amber, providing a clean, powdery finish.
