The story behind the bottle.
Siberian Golden Woods by Memo Paris was launched in 2019 and was crafted by perfumer Sophie Labbé. This composition opens with a warm sesame note that immediately sets the stage for an earthy, woody journey. The heart of vetiver adds depth and complexity, grounding the scent with its distinctive green aroma. The base note of sandalwood rounds out the fragrance with a rich, powdery warmth that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
This fragrance captures the essence of a distant forest where sunlight filters through towering trees, casting dappled shadows on the earthy undergrowth. It is a composition that balances crisp green notes with the warmth of wood, creating an atmosphere that feels both grounded and luxurious.
Apply two sprays to ensure the sesame note has enough time to unfold before giving way to the vetiver and sandalwood. This fragrance builds subtly on the skin, so it's best used during cooler weather when its warmth can be appreciated without overpowering.
