Marfa borrows its name from a small town in the Texan desert that became an artists' haven. Mandarin and peach open the composition on a sunny softness.
At heart, tuberose blooms with ylang-ylang and orange blossom, creamy and luminous; the base, of Virginia cedar, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean and musk, gives it the warmth of sand. A generous white flower, more sunny than heady.

Marfa in detail
Memo Paris conceives its fragrances as travel journals. Marfa, signed by Aliénor Massenet, imagines a tuberose in the Texas desert: a sunny, creamy white floral, which the house lists among its fragrances for her.
The official pyramid opens on mandarin and peach, a fruity, velvety start. The heart brings together ylang-ylang, tuberose and orange blossom, a bouquet of generous white flowers. The base pairs cedarwood, vanilla, tonka bean, sandalwood and musk, a warm, creamy foundation.
Marfa is worn in spring and summer, by day or by night: a summer evening, dinner on a terrace, a celebration. It will suit anyone who loves sunny rather than green tuberoses.
Three florals in our catalogue share many of its materials: Adare, from the same house, brings together mandarin, orange blossom, ylang-ylang, tuberose, vanilla, sandalwood and musk; Danger Pour Femme by Roja Parfums pairs mandarin, ylang-ylang, peach, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean and musk; Hundred Silent Ways by Nishane finds tuberose, mandarin, peach, vanilla and sandalwood again.
