The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Kedu Sesame by Memo Paris was launched in 2017 as a Chypre Floral fragrance that balances fresh and aromatic elements with rich floral notes. The scent opens with the vibrant brightness of grapefruit and mandarin orange, giving way to the delicate florals of peony, freesia, and rose. At its core, mate and lotus add an unexpected depth, while sesame brings a subtle nuttiness that is both warm and intriguing. The base notes of white musk, moss, and palm tree ground the composition with earthy warmth.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied in thin layers. The bright top notes fade within an hour, but the heart and base notes develop gradually over time. It's ideal for daytime wear when you want something fresh that evolves into warmth as the day progresses.
