French Leather stages a very French rose, a rose of seduction. Lime and rose mingle with a suede accord that recalls the lining of a leather bag; Memo Paris sees it as a way of bringing out Parisian style in everyone.
Juniper berries, lime, bergamot and pink pepper open the composition. Rose, clary sage and a hay absolute form the heart, before a base of Virginia cedarwood and suede. A creation by Aliénor Massenet.

French Leather in detail
Memo Paris loves travel fragrances; its leathers form a family of their own, the nomadic leathers. French Leather stages a very French rose, a rose of seduction, and sets out to bring out Parisian style in everyone. It is signed by Aliénor Massenet.
The official pyramid opens with juniper berries, lime, bergamot and pink pepper. The heart pairs rose essence, clary sage and a hay absolute. The base brings together Virginia cedarwood and a suede accord that recalls the lining of a leather bag.
French Leather suits spring and autumn, by day or by night, in town or on a trip. Its hay and suede give the rose a soft, slightly rustic warmth.
Three leather fragrances in our catalogue come close: Crème de Cuir by BDK Parfums shares bergamot, pink pepper and suede; Smoke Show by Vilhelm Parfumerie pairs pink pepper, rose and cedarwood; African Leather by Memo Paris finds pink pepper and rose again in a sunnier leather.
