My time travel fragrance
This fragrance will always be something special for me.
After going through a break-up from a relationship of over 12 years, I needed something new - typically. So five years ago, I not only went to the hairdresser, but also to the perfumery. And it turned out to be "La Belle" by Gaultier.
Since then, this fragrance has stood for the beginning of a new phase in my life. It made me feel confident, secure and incredibly feminine.
I'm now more at home in the niche world, but I still love it and it takes me right back to that time. I also met my current partner with him. "La Belle" met "Tobacco Vanille" by Tom Ford. Sometimes we still wear this exact combination and it will always feel just right!

I really like pear in perfumes in general. This soft, fruity scent paired with buttery vanilla - unbeatable for me. It is also slightly floral and I find it a touch smoky, which rounds off the whole thing beautifully.

The longevity is also really unbeatable. This fragrance lasts all day on my skin.

La Belle - Thank you for making me feel like the name says it all!

The scent of my life
My friend was just starting to get into niche perfumes and took me to every store on the way. I couldn't get much out of the whole thing and just put up with it.
In a wonderful perfumery in Bonn, we were shown the Memo Paris fragrances for the first time. As always, I was overwhelmed by the selection and was extremely skeptical when I started to sniff a few.
Inlé, Winter Palace, Ilha do Mel,.... All extremely pleasant, but still not amazing. I bravely continued testing until the saleswoman approached me and asked if she could recommend a fragrance. An offer I'm always happy to accept, but it's not usually a good fit.
She picked up the bottle of Marfa and BOOM!
I have never (!) found a fragrance so immediately pleasant. I was completely flashed and must have held the fragrance card to my nose a thousand times that day.
A short time later I ordered the fragrance and what can I say: it really is the fragrance of my life!
No other fragrance makes me feel as comfortable, as authentic as this one. If I don't know which one to wear today - this one always works! Summer or winter? Marfa always works!
It gives me incredible confidence and makes me feel perfectly dressed. Even hours later, I love it when I can still smell it from time to time.
This beautiful floral blend of tuberose and orange blossom with a little hint of tanginess from the mandarin and everything bedded on such a soft and, for me, warm bed of vanilla and musk... a dream! There was one note that I couldn't quite identify. I think it's the agave. But it rounds off the fragrance perfectly.

You have to like floral fragrances, but I can only recommend giving it a try! My absolute signature! This fragrance also opened the door to the world of niche perfumery for me. Thanks to this success, my boyfriend and I now share a hobby. But this fragrance will always have a special place in my heart.
